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.
In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when
4.82 g of CsClO4(s)
are dissolved in 118.30 g of water, the
temperature of the solution drops from
23.64 to 21.14 °C.
The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the
calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate
experiment to be 1.82 J/°C.
Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of
dissolution of CsClO4(s) in
kJ/mol.
Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific
heat of water
We can use the following formula
Q = mc∆T
Q = heat energy (Joules, J), m = mass of a substance (g)
c = specific heat (units J/g∙oC), ∆ is a symbol meaning "the change in"
∆T = change in temperature (oC Celcius)
heat absorbed by CsClO4 = heat released by water + Heat released by calorimeter
Let us the amount of heat released by water
Q = ? m = 4.82 g +118.30 g = 123.12 g c= 4.184 J/g∙oC ∆T = 23.64°C - 21.14 °C = 2.5 °C
Q = 123.12 g x 4.184 J/g∙oC x 2.5 °C
Q = 1,287.836 Joules
Heat released by calorimeter = 2.5 °C x 1.82 J/°C = 4.55 Joules
heat absorbed by CsClO4 = 1,287.836 J + 4.55 J = 1,292.38 J = 1.292 kJ
Molar mass of CsClO4 = 232.36 g/mol
mass of CsClO4 used = 4.82 g
Moles of CsClO4 used = 4.82 g / 232.36 g/mol = 0.02074 Moles
The enthalpy of dissolution of CsClO4(s) = 1.292 kJ / 0.02074 Mol = 62.29 kJ /mol
