The rate at which crickets chirp depends on the ambient temperature, because crickets are cold-blooded insects whose body temperature follows the temperature of their environment. It has been found that the Celsius temperature can be estimated by counting the number of chirps in 8 seconds and then adding 4. In other words, te - (number of chirps in 8 seconds) + 4.

When 145 mL of 0.212 M NaCl(aq) and 145 mL of 0.212 M AgNO3(aq), both at 21.1°C, are mixed in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the mixture increases to 23.7°C as solid AgCl forms. NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) This precipitation reaction produces 3.14 ✕ 103 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 ΔH in kJ/mol of AgNO3(aq) for the given reaction.
