When 130. mL of 0.204 M NaCl(aq) and 130. mL of 0.204 M AgNO3(aq), both at 21.1°C, are mixed in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the mixture increases to 23.6°C as solid AgCl forms. NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) This precipitation reaction produces 2.71x10³ J of heat, assuming no heat is absorbed by the calorimeter, no heat is exchanged between the calorimeter and its surroundings, and that the specific heat and density of the solutions are the same as those for water (4.18 J/g.°C, and 0.997 g/mL, respectively). Using this data, calculate AH in kJ/mol of AgNO3(aq) for the given reaction. 4.0✔✓ kJ/mol

A student dissolves 14.0 g of ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) in 200. g of water in a well-insulated open cup. He then observes the temperature of the water fall from 22.0 °C to 16.6 °C over the course of 5.5 minutes. Use this data, and any information you need from the ALEKS Data resource, to answer the questions below about this reaction: NH4NO₂ (s) NH(aq) + NO3(aq) - You can make any reasonable assumptions about the physical properties of the solution. Be sure answers you calculate using measured data are rounded to the correct number of significant digits. Note for advanced students: it's possible the student did not do the experiment carefully, and the values you calculate may not be the same as the known and published values for this reaction. Is this reaction exothermic, endothermic, or neither? If you said the reaction was exothermic or endothermic, calculate the amount of heat that was released or absorbed by the reaction in this case.
