In a coffee-cup calorimeter, 100.0 mL of 1.76 M HNO3 and 100.0 mL of 1.22 M Ca(OH)2 are mixed. Both solutions were originally at 24.6 °C. The maximum temperature observed during the experiment is 36.4 °C. Calculate the enthalpy change for the neutralization reaction that occurs. Assume the mixture in the coffee cup has the same density and specific heat as pure water.
*This is from a problem sheet that's for extra practice. It gives me the answer of -112 kJ. I get to q solution = 200g X 4.184 X 11.8, which equals 9.87 kJ, so q rxn = -9.87 kJ but I don't know where to go from here or if this is even correct so far. I should also mention that for some reason, this class doesn't do that extra calculation to account for heat lost to the cup.
There is no any information about heat absorbed by cup. Hence we assume heat lost by reaction is equal to heat absorbed by the reaction.Hence we can write
q reaction = - q solution
We know that , q solution = C x m x T
Where , C is a specific heat of solution ,
m is a mass of solution ,
T is a change in temperature of solution.
Here, Volume of solution = Volume of acid + Volume of base = 100 ml + 100 ml = 200 ml
Density of the solution is 1 g / ml . Hence,mass of solution = 200 g
Specific heat of solution = Specific heat of water = 4.184 J / g 0 C
T = T final - T initial = 36.4 0 C - 24.6 0 C = 11.8 0 C
Hence, q solution = 200 g x 4.184 J / g 0 C x 11.8 0 C
= 9874.2 J
Therefore, q reaction = - q solution
= - 9874.2 J
= 9.874 kJ
Consider a reaction 2 HNO 3 + Ca(OH) 2 Ca(NO 3 ) 2 + 2 H2O
From reaction , Stoichiometric ratio = No of moles of Acid / No of moles of Base = 2/1 = 2
No of moles of HNO 3 = Molarity x volume of solution in L
= 1.76 mol / L x 0.1 L
= 0.176 mol
No of moles of Ca(OH) 2 = 1.22 mol / L x 0.1 L
= 0.122 mol
From reaction , No of moles of Acid = No of moles of base x stoichiometric ratio
= 0.122 x 2
= 0.244
No of moles of HNO 3 = 0.176 mol are less than required 0.244 mol. HNO 3 is a limiting reactant.Hence , 0.176 mol acid is neutralised.
For the reaction of 0.176 mol HNO 3 , q = - 9.874 kJ. Conversion factor is - 9.874 kJ / 0.176 mol HNO 3
Hence, H reaction = 1 mol HNO 3 x - 9.874 kJ / 0.176 mol HNO 3 = - 56.10 kJ
ANSWER : H reaction = - 56.10 kJ
