Question

n this experiment you will place a sample of your salt in water in a constant pressure calorimeter with a heat capacity of 29.4 J/℃.  You will determine the enthalpy change for the dissociation of your salt, Delta Hdiss.   A sample of 4.368 grams of the salt SrCl2 was placed in 35.5 g water, the initial temperature was 20.00℃  and the final temperature was 27.086365℃.   What is the heat of reaction for this reaction, in sig figs?

q (reaction)  =   – q (solution)   +    – q (calorimeter)

q (reaction)  =   – (4.368 g  +  35.5 g) x (4.184 J/g℃) x (27.086365℃  –  20.00℃)     

                                                 +    – (29.4 J/℃) x (27.086365℃  –  20.00℃)     

q (reaction)  =   – 1182.060326 J     +    – 208.339131 J

q (reaction)  =   – 1390.399457 J

 
a. – 1.4 x 10^3 J
b. none of these
c. – 1390.40 J
d. – 1390 J
e. – 1.390 x 10^3 J
f. – 1.39 x 10^3 J
g. – 1390.39 J
h. – 1390.399457 J
