Question

Ammonium nitrate dissociates in water according to the following equation:

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

NH₄NO₃ = NH₄⁺ +NO₃⁻

heat released  by water = msΔ T

m is mass , s is specific heat and ΔT is fall in temperature

= 50  x 4.18 x ( 22 - 16.5 )  ( mass of 50 mL is 50 g )

= 1149.5 J .

This heat will be absorbed by the reaction above .

q for the reaction = + 1149.5 J

2 )

molecular weight of NH₄NO₃ = 80

No of moles reacted = 5/80 = 1 / 16 moles.

3 )  

5 g absorbs 1149.5 J

80 g absorbs 1149.5 x 16 J

= 18392 J

= 18.392 kJ.

= + 18.392 kJ

ΔH =  18.392 kJ / mol
