Question
**Calorimetry and Enthalpy Change**

When 23.6 g of calcium chloride, CaCl₂, was dissolved in water in a constant-pressure calorimeter, the temperature rose from 25.0°C to 38.7°C. If the heat capacity of the solution and the calorimeter is 1258 J/°C, what is the enthalpy change when 1.21 mol of calcium chloride dissolves in water? The solution process is

\[ \text{CaCl}_2(s) \rightarrow \text{Ca}^{2+}(aq) + 2\text{Cl}^-(aq) \]

Enthalpy change = \_\_\_\_ kJ

**Instructions:**
To find the enthalpy change, you can use the formula:
\[ q = C \times \Delta T \]
where \( q \) is the heat absorbed or released, \( C \) is the heat capacity, and \( \Delta T \) is the change in temperature. Then, convert the heat energy to enthalpy change per mole of solute dissolved. 

**Components of the Image:**
The image presents an example of a chemistry problem focused on determining the enthalpy change associated with the dissolution of calcium chloride using calorimetry.
