A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide. The concentration o
f a solution equals the mass of what's dissolved divided by the total volume of the solution. Here's how the student prepared the solution: The label on the graduated cylinder says: empty weight: She put some solid sodium hydroxide into the graduated cylinder and weighed it. With the sodium hydroxide added, the cylinder weighed . She added water to the graduated cylinder and dissolved the sodium hydroxide completely. Then she read the total volume of the solution from the markings on the graduated cylinder. The total volume of the solution was . What concentration should the student write down in her lab notebook? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: The reaction is exothermic
The value is negative.
Heat is a product.
Explanation:
Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be positive.
Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be negative.
The substances which are written on the left side of the arrow are reactants and the substances which are written on the right side of the arrow are products. Thus heat is a product.
According to Charles' Law the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature in Kelvin keeping the pressure constant.
V∝ T, P is constant
where V, T and P are volume, temperature and pressure
=
where V₁, T₁, V₂ and T₂ are initial volume, initial temperature, final volume and final temperature.
