In parts 2, 3 and 4 of this lab, you will be conducting calorimetry experiments on neutralization reactions in solution. Two solutions (each of volume 2.5 mL) will be mixed together to initiate the reaction. What mass of water should be used in the calculation of the heat energy absorbed by the calorimeter? 2.5 g 5.0 g (since the two solutions are mixed together, the volumes and hence their masses are added together).

In a simple calorimeter, a piece of metal weighing 48.67 g was heated to 120.0 °C and then put it into 100.0 mL of water (initially at 23.7 °C). The metal and water were allowed to come to an equilibrium temperature, determined to be 27.8 °C. Assuming no heat lost to the environment, calculate the specific heat of the metal. Is this process endothermic or exothermic? Explain. Show Your Work
The heat released when one mole of water is formed from the elements is 1,198 kJ. An experiment was conducted that permitted water to form in this manner, and the heat was contained in 2.0 liters of water. The water temperature before the reaction was 34.5°C, and after the reaction it had risen to 52.0°C. How many moles of water were formed? (The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g·°C.)Answer: 0.12 mole (Can you explain how?)
48.2 mL of a solution of HCl is combined with 110.7 mL of 1.35 M NaOH in a calorimeter. The reaction mixture is initially at 22.4°C, and the final temperature after reaction is 29.3°C. What is the molarity of the HCl solution? You may assume that there is an excess of base (so that all the HCI has reacted), that the specific heat of the reaction mixture is 0.96 cal/g °C, and that the density of the reaction mixture is 1.02 g/mL. The heat of neutralization of HCl and NaOH is 13.6 kcal/mole.
An ideal gas in a cylinder fitted with a piston expands at constant temperature from a pressure of 9 atm and a volume of 4.,0 L to a final volume of 13 L against a constant opposing pressure of 1.4 atm. How much heat does the gas absorb, expressed in units of L atm (liter x atm)? Latm
A 5.71 g sample of an unknown salt (MM = 116.82 g/mol) is dissolved in 150.00 g water in a coffee cup calorimeter. Before placing the sample in the water, the temperature of the salt and water is 23.72 °C. After the salt has completely dissolved, the temperature of the solution is 28.54 °C. What quantity in moles of the unknown salt were used in the reaction?
A piece of molybdenum metal whose mass is 6.87 g is heated to 100.0 °C and then dropped into an ice calorimeter. As the molybdenum cools to 0.0°C, 0.513 g of ice melts (it takes 6.01 kJ of heat to melt exactly 1 mol of ice). What is the molar heat capacity (in J/mol·K) of molybdenum? i J/mol*K
In a coffee-cup calorimeter, 120.0 mL of 1.4 M NaOH and 120.0 mL of 1.4 M HCL are mixed. Both solutions were originally at 20.6°C. After the reaction, the final temperature is 30.0°C. Assuming that all the solutions have a density of 1.0 and a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/°C·g, calculate the enthalpy change for the neutralization of HCL by NaOH . Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings or to the calorimeter. ΔH = kJ/mol
3. In this experiment, we have used 1.0 x 1.01 J/°C for the heat capacity of the coffee-cup calorimeter. Let us verify this number through the following experiment using only hot and cold water. Experimental procedure: Place 50 mL of water at 20.0 °C in the coffee cup calorimeter. i. ii. Add 50 mL of hot water at 98.0 °C to the calorimeter holding the cold water. ii. The Trof 58.0 °C was obtained through the temperature-time graph. Calculate the specific heat of the coffee cup calorimeter. Remember that the heat lost by the hot water was gained by the cold water as well as the calorimeter.
The heat capacity of an object depends on its mass and its composition. The heat capacity of one gram of a substance is called the Specific Heat. That is , specific heat is the amount of heat required to produce a change of 1ºC in exactly 1 g of substance. Liquid water has one of the highest specific heats known, 1 cal/g ºC or 4.184 J /g ºC . This specific heat, for example, is about 5 times as great as that of aluminum metal. Thus 1 cal of heat will increase the temperature of 1 g of aluminum by 5º C , but it raises the temperature of water by only 1ºC.
In a coffee-cup calorimeter, 110.0 mL of 1.3 M and 110.0 mL of 1.3 M are mixed. Both solutions were originally at 22.2°C. After the reaction, the final temperature is 30.9°C. Assuming that all the solutions have a density of 1.0 and a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/°C·g, calculate the enthalpy change for the neutralization of HCl by NaOH in (kJ/mol). Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings or to the calorimeter.
