Since the density of water is 1 g /mL, hence there is 100
g of H2O. So total mass is:
m = 100 g + 5 g = 105 g
=> The heat of reaction can be calculated using the
formula:
δhrxn = m C ΔT
where m is mass, C is heap capacity and ΔT is change in
temperature = negative since there is a decrease
δhrxn = 105 g * 4.18 J/g°C * (-2.30°C)
δhrxn = -1,009.47 J
=> However this is still in units of J, so calculate
the number of moles of NaCl.
moles NaCl = 5 g / (58.44 g / mol)
moles NaCl = 0.0856 mol
=> So the heat of reaction per mole is:
δhrxn = -1,009.47 J / 0.0856 mol
δhrxn = -11,798.69 J/mol = -11.8 kJ/mol
The answer should be D hope this helps
I am so sorry I do not know but I need to answer a question in order to ask one I hope u pass:))
