A reaction between Mg and aqueous hydrochloric acid was performed to determine the heat of the reaction. A calorimeter with a heat capacity of 6.5 J/K was used. To the calorimeter 50.0 mL of 1.0 M HCl was added, the initial temperature was recorded and then 0.250 g of magnesium metal was added. The final temperature was then recorded. (Assume density of the solution is 1.03 g/mL; q = mcAT; molar mass Mg = 24.31 g/mol; specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g.K; q calorimeter = heat capacity x AT). The following data was recorded:Initial temperature:21.5°C ; Final Temperature: 45.1°c Calculate q calorimeter (J) q solution (J) total amount of heat released (J), mol Mg, enthalpy of reaction in kJ/molor (q total/mol Mg). Just put the numerical values since units are already indicated. For the question, amount of heat released, there is no need to put the negative sign.
