The solution's temperature decreases by 9.31°C. Calculate AH, in kJ/mol, for the dissolution of the unknown solid. (The specific heat of the solution is 4.184 J/g·°C and the density of the solution is 1.02 g/mL).
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
Given,
Moles of an unknown solid = 0.700 mol.
Volume of the solution = 150.0 mL.
The density of the solution = 1.02 g/mL.
The temperature decreased by 9.31 °C.
The specific heat of solution is 4.184 J/g.°C.
