Give handwritten answer A coffee cup calorimeter is prepared, containing 100.000 g of water (specific heat capacity = 4.184 J/g K) at initial temperature 80.000 C. A salt weighing 7.308 g is quickly added. The salt has a molar mass of 178.051 g/mol. The final temperature of the solution is 51.028 C. Assume no heat loss to the surroundings. Assume the specific heat capacity of the solution is equal to that of pure water, and that the mass of the solution is equal to the mass of the solid plus the mass of water in the calorimeter. What is the molar heat of solution for the salt, in kJ/mol?
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.
