When 50.0 mL of 1.27 M of HCl(aq) is combined with 50.0 mL of 1.32 M of NaOH(aq) in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temperature of

the solution increases by 8.49°C. What is the change in enthalpy for this balanced reaction? HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) Assume that the solution density is 1.00 g/mL and the specific heat capacity of the solution is 4.18 J/g⋅°C. Hint: You need to determine the limiting reagent.

Answer:

-55.9kJ/mol is the change in enthalpy of the reaction

Explanation:

In the reaction:

HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → H₂O(l) + NaCl

Some heat is released per mole of reaction.

To know how many moles reacts we need to find limiting reactant:

Moles HCl = 0.050L ₓ (1.27mol /  L) = 0.0635 moles HCl

Moles NaOH = 0.050L ₓ (1.32mol /  L) = 0.066 moles NaOH

As there are more moles of NaOH than moles of HCl, <em>HCl is limiting reactant and moles of reaction are moles of limiting reactant, </em><em>0.0635 moles</em>

<em />

Using the coffee-cup calorimeter equation we can find how many heat was released thus:

Q = C×m×ΔT

<em>Where Q is heat released, C is specific heat of the solution (4.18J/g°C), m is mass of solution (100g because there are 100mL of solution -50.0mL of HCl and 50.0mL of NaOH- and density is 1g/mL) and ΔT is change in temperature (8.49°C)</em>

Replacing:

Q = 4.18J/g°C×100g×8.49°C

Q = 3548.8J of heat are released in the reaction

Now, change in enthalpy, ΔH, is equal to change in heat (As is released heat ΔH < 0) per mole of reaction, that is:

ΔH = Heat / mol of reaction

ΔH = -3548.8J / 0.0635 moles of reaction

<em>Negative because is released heat. </em>

ΔH = -55887J / mol

ΔH =

<h3>-55.9kJ/mol is the change in enthalpy of the reaction</h3>

Solution of copper (II) sulfate reacts with solution of sodium hydroxide to ____
Juli2301 [7.4K]

<u>Answer:</u>

A. Solution of copper (II) sulfate reacts with solution of sodium hydroxide to produce "copper hydroxide & solution of sodium sulphate".

B. Solid baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate or sodium bicarbonate) reacts with solution of hydrochloric acid to produce "carbon dioxide and water".

<u>Explanation:</u>

When CuSO4 is an acid salt while NaOH is a solid base mixed together. This reaction results into a basic copper hydroxide in the form of pale blue precipitate & sodium sulphate, which is a solution of neutral salt. This process is called as both a double displacement and precipitation reaction.

2NaOH + CuSO4 --> Cu(OH)2 + Na2SO4.

Sodium bicarbonate is used as a cleaner, from a "primitive" material to extract any acidic contaminants, for producing a nobler sample. Sodium bicarbonate and acid mixture generates a salt and carbonic acid that breaks down readily into carbon dioxide and water.

NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2CO. H2CO3 → H2O + CO2(g).

Which property describes the shininess of an element?
goldenfox [79]

Answer: Metals are shiny and lustrous with a high density. They have very high melting and boiling points because metallic bonding is very strong, so the atoms are reluctant to break apart into a liquid or gas.

_Cuo +H, → _Cu + _H,0
Elena-2011 [213]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

CuO(s) + H₂(g) →  Cu(s) + H₂O(l)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Assuming the reaction is the reduction of CuO by H₂
  • Then the balanced equation for the reaction is;

CuO(s) + H₂(g) →  Cu(s) + H₂O(l)

  • The equation shows the reducing property of hydrogen gas, such that hydrogen reduces metal oxides such as copper(ii)oxide to the respective metals.
  • The law of conservation requires chemical equations to be balanced so as the mass of reactants will be equal to that of products.
  • In this case; there is 1 copper atom, 1 oxygen atom and 2 hydrogen atoms on both side of the equation and thus the equation is balanced.
