A calorimeter contains reactants and a substance to absorb the heat absorbed. The initial temperature (before the reaction) of the heat absorbent is measured and then the final temperature (after the reaction) is also measured. The absorbent's specific heat capacity and mass are also known. Given all of this data, the equation:
Q = mcΔT 
To find the heat released.

In class, it was mentioned that at 25 °C, the pH of pure water is 7.00 becuase Kw = 1.0 × 10−14. At other temperatures, the pH v

Answer:

Kw = 2.88 × 10⁻¹⁵

Explanation:

Let's consider the dissociation of water.

H₂O(l) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The equilibrium constant Kw is:

Kw = [H⁺].[OH⁻]

If pH = 7.27, we can find [H⁺]:

pH = -log [H⁺]

H⁺ = anti log (-pH) = anti log (-7.27) = 5.37 × 10⁻⁸ M

According to the balanced equation, 1 mole of H⁺ is produced per mole of OH⁻. So, [H⁺] = [OH⁻] = 5.37 × 10⁻⁸ M

Then,

Kw = [H⁺].[OH⁻]= (5.37 × 10⁻⁸)² = 2.88 × 10⁻¹⁵
