1. A 0.656 g sample, initially at a temperature of 30 deg. C, of naphthalene was ignited in a bomb calorimeter. In a separate calibration experiment, a sample of 0.825 g sample of benzoic acid produced a temperature rise of 1.94 deg. C. Use this information to determine the final T in the naphthalene experiment.

Reveiw steps of the calorimetry experiment. Describe how a calorimetry experiment is used to determine the enthalpy of a reaction. Gather the items to set up your calorimeter (coffee-cup, stir plate and stir bar, Vernier temperature probe, lid for coffee-cup) Pour 50.0 mL of DI water into the coffee-cup calorimeter. You will be preparing 50.0 mL of a 1.0 M solution of sodium nitrate solution. Using the Vernier temperature probe, record the initial temperature of your DI water. Weigh out the mass of sodium nitrate needed for your solution and pour it into the calorimeter. Immediately begin collecting temperature data. Repeat multiple times.

a group of chem students was asked to determine the heat of reaction for the neutralization of a newly synthesized monoprotic acid HX and NaOH. they first calibrated the styro ball calorimeter using the reaction of 15.0mL of 0.100M HCl and 20.0mL of 0.0500M KOH. this recorded a change in temperature from 26.5 °C to 31.8 °C. afterwards, they determined the heat of reaction for a mixture of 5.00mL, 1.00M NaOH and 10.0mL, 1.00M HX. this showed an increase in temperature of 3.6 °C C. What is the experimental enthalpy (in kJ/mol) for the neutralization reaction between HX and NaOH?D. Is the reaction between NaOH and HX endothermic or exothermic?

Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants increases by 254. kJ during a certain chemical reaction, which is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that 185. kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction. Calculate the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. O exothermic Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? O endothermic
One method of generating electricity is by burning coal to heat water, which produces steam that drives an electric generator. To determine the rate at which coal is to be fed into the burner in this type of plant, the heat of combustion per ton of coal must be determined using a bomb calorimeter. When 1.00 g of coal is burned in a bomb calorimeter (as shown), the temperature increases by 1.48 °C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 21.6 kJ/°C, determine the heat produced by combustion of a ton of coal (2.000 × 103 pounds).
