Answer : The final temperature of the solution in the calorimeter is,
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the heat produced.
where,
= enthalpy change = -44.5 kJ/mol
q = heat released = ?
m = mass of = 1.52 g
Molar mass of = 40 g/mol
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
Now we have to calculate the final temperature of solution in the calorimeter.
where,
q = heat produced = 1.691 kJ = 1691 J
m = mass of solution = 1.52 + 35.5 = 37.02 g
c = specific heat capacity of water =
= initial temperature =
= final temperature = ?
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
Thus, the final temperature of the solution in the calorimeter is,
