In a constant‑pressure calorimeter, 70.0 mL of 0.310 M Ba ( OH ) 2 was added to 70.0 mL of 0.620 M HCl . The reaction caused the temperature of the solution to rise from 21.12 ∘ C to 25.34 ∘ C. If the solution has the same density and specific heat as water, what is heat absorbed by the solution? Assume that the total volume is the sum of the individual volumes. (And notice that the answer is in kJ).

The amount of heat absorbed by the solution is 56.98 kJ

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

   .....(1)

Molarity of barium hydroxide solution = 0.310 M

Volume of solution = 70 mL = 0.070 L   (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

Molarity of HCl solution = 0.620 M

Volume of solution = 70 mL = 0.070 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of HCl produces 2 moles of water

So, 0.0434 moles of HCl will produce = of water

Density of solution = 1 g/mL

Volume of solution = [70 + 70] = 140 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

where,

q = heat absorbed

m = mass of solution = 140 g

c = heat capacity of solution= 4.186 J/g°C

= change in temperature =

Putting values in above equation, we get:

To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

where,

q = amount of heat absorbed = 2.473 kJ

n = number of moles of water = 0.0434 moles

= enthalpy change of the reaction

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the amount of heat absorbed by the solution is 56.98 kJ

geosphere and hydrosphere.

this is because the geosphere has to do with geological events, while the hydrosphere controls all water on earth.

they all get energy from eating other animals, dead animals to be more precise.

hienas tends to steal pray from other animals. crows and vultures tend to eat dead animals and leftovers.
