When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter.In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 5.11 g of NH4Cl(s) are dissolved in 109.20 g of water, the temperature of the solution drops from 23.49 to 20.16 °C.The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.74 J/°C.Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of NH4Cl(s) in kJ/mol.Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water.ΔHdissolution = kJ/mol

The molar heat of solution of a substance is found to be +21.38 kJ/mol. The addition of 0.100 mol of this substance to 1.000L of water initially at 40.0 degrees celsius results in a temperature decrease. Assume the specific heat of the resulting solution to be equal to that of pure water. Find the final temperature of the solution (Also assume that the heat capacity of the calorimeter is negligible).

A typical fat in the body is glyceryl trioleate, C57H104O6. When it is metabolized in the body, it combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and 3.022 × 104 kJ of heat per mole of fat. Write a balanced thermochemical equation for the metabolism of fat. How many kilojoules of energy must be evolved in the form of heat if you want to get rid of 15 pounds of this fat by combustion? How many nutritional calories is this? (1 nutritional calorie = 1 × 103 calories)
