Question
A calorimetry experiment was conducted by adding 0.313 g of magnesium to 100.0 mL of
1.00 M hydrochloric acid solution in a foam cup. The temperature was initially 24.62 °C and the
maximum temperature attained was 36.74 °C. Determine the heat of reaction, qrxn, in Joules
and the enthalpy of reaction, AHxn, in kJ/mol. Assume the solution has a density of 1.00 g/ml
and a specific heat of 4.18 J °C¹¹ g¹.
