Question
Adding 4.28 g of
NH,NO3 (s) to 150 g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter (with stirring to dissolve the salt) resulted in a decrease in temperature from 18.4 °C to 16.5 °C. Calculate the enthalpy change for dissolving
NH,NO3 (s) in water in kJ/mol. Assume the solution (whose mass is 154.3 g) has a specific heat capacity of 4.2 J/g K. (Cold packs take advantage of the fact that dissolving ammonium nitrate in water is an endothermic process.)
ACE
A cold pack uses the endothermic enthalpy of a solution of ammonium nitrate.
Enthalpy change =
kJ/mol
