The heat of solution is -51.8 kJ/mol
<h3>What is the heat of solution?</h3>
We know that in a calorimeter, there is no loss or gain of energy. It is a good example of a closed system.
Number of moles of KOH = 11.9-g/56 g/mol = 0.21 moles
Temperature rise = 26.0 ∘c
Mass of the water = 100.0 grams
Heat capacity = 4.184 j/g⋅°c
Then;
ΔH = mcθ
ΔH = 100g * 4.184 j/g⋅°c * 26.0 ∘c = 10.88 kJ
Heat of solution = -(10.88 kJ/ 0.21 moles) = -51.8 kJ/mol
