Question
When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed.
The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a
coffee
cup
calorimeter.
Thermometer
In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 4.07 g
of CuCl,(s) are dissolved in 109.30 g of water, the temperature of
Cardboard or
Styrofoam lid
the solution increases from 23.32 to 26.59 °C.
The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the
calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to
Nested
be 1.55 J/°C.
Styrofoam cups
Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of
dissolution of CuCl,(s) in kJ/mol.
Reaction
occurs in
solution.
Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific
heat of water.
