Answer:
Molar heat enthalpy of KBr = -19.89 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Change in temperature (Δt) = 0.370 K
Heat capacity = 2.71 kJ ⋅ K^-1
Heat absorbed by calorimeter = heat capacity × change in temperature
= 2.71× 0.370
= 1.0027 kJ
Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mol
No. of moles of KBr = 6.00/119
= 0.0504 mol
Heat absorbed by the calorimeter is given by KBr.
Now calculate the heat released by per mol of KBr as follows:
Heat released by per mol of KBr = 1.0027 kJ / 0.0504 mol
=19.89 kJ/mol
Heat is released therefore, sign will be negative.
Molar heat enthalpy of KBr = -19.89 kJ/mol
