Calculate AHna for the neutralization of HCI (aq) and NaOH (aq) in kilojoules per mol of NaCl b Calculate 1m for the neutralization of HCI (aq) and NaOH (s) in kilojoules per mol of NaCI 3. a. Using your experimental data and Hess's law, what is the enthalpy of reaction for NaOH (s) NaOH (aq)? b. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? CHEM1414-AY-2017-2018 8-12Explanation / Answer
1.
We have to write the reaction between them first:
NaOH + HCl -----> NaCl + H2O
this equation always shows the relation in moles
1 mol NaOH reacts with 1 mol HCl to form 1 mol NaCl
moles can be obtained = mass/ molar mass
or moles = molarity x volume in litres
2.
We need to find the heat released per mole by looking at the change in temperature of solution
mCpT = heat absorbed by solution
from here heat of neutralization can be obtained
mCpT = H x n
n = no. of moles of NaOH reacted
H = molar heat of neutralization
Cp = heat capacity of water
