In a coffee-cup calorimeter, 100.0 mL of 1.0 M NaOH and 100.0 mL of 1.0 M HCI are mixed. Both solutions were originally at 24.6C. After the reaction, the final temperature is 31.3C. Assuming that all the solutions have a density of 1.0 g/cm3 and a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/Cg, calculate the enthalpy change for the neutralization of HCl by NaOH. Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings or to the calorimeter.
Nitrogen gas is confined in a cylinder with a movable piston under a constant pressure of 9.95 104 Pa. When 695 J of energy in the form of heat is transferred from the gas to the surroundings, its volume decreases by 1.88 L. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?
9.102 A runner generates 418 kJ of energy per kilometer from the cellular oxidation of food. The runner's body must dissipate this heat or the body will overheat. Suppose that sweat evaporation is the only important cooling mechanism.

Peanuts and peanut oil are organic materials and bum in air. How many burning peanuts does it take to provide the energy to boil a cup of water (250 mL of water)? To solve this problem, we assume each peanut, with an average mass of 0.73 g, is 49% peanut oil and 21% starch; the remainder is noncombustible We further assume peanut oil is palmitic acid, C16H32O2, with an enthalpy of formation of 848.4 kJ/mol. Starch is a long chain of C6H10O5 units, each unit having an enthalpy of formation of 960 kJ.
