Answer:

Step 1: Calculate qsur (the surrounding is

usually the water)

qsur = ? J

m = 75.0 g water

c = 4.184 J/g

oC

ΔT = (Tfinal- Tinitial)= (21.6 – 31.0) = -9.4 oC

qsur = m · c · (ΔT)

qsur = (75.0g) (4.184 J/g

oC) (-9.4 oC)

qsur = - 2949.72 J

First, using the information we know that we

must solve for qsur, which is the water. We know

the mass for water, 75.0g, the specific heat of

the water, 4.184 j/g

o

c, and the change in

temperature, 21.6-31.0 = -9.4 oC. Plugging it

into the equation, we solve for qsur.

Step 2: Calculate qsys qsys = - (qsur)

qsys = - (- 2949.72 J)

qsys = + 2949.72

In this case, the qsur is negative, which means

that the water lost energy. Where did it go? It

went to the system. Thus, the energy of the

system is negative, opposite, the energy of the

surrounding.

Step 3: Calculate moles of the substance

that is the system

Given: 12.8 g KCl

Mol system = (g system given)

(molar mass of system)

Mol system = (12.8 g KCl)

(39.10g + 35.45g)

Mol system = 12.8 g KCl

74.55 g

Mol system = 0.172

Here, we solve for the mol in the system by

using the molar mass of the material in the

system.

Step 4: Calculate ΔH ΔH = q sys .

Mol system

ΔH= + 2949.72 J

0.172 mol

ΔH= +17179.81 J/mol or +1.72 x 104

J/mol

i hope this helps
