Your friend has discovered a new parlor trick and claims that he can boil water by mixing sulfuric acid, H2SO4, with magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2. Assume he uses 136.42 mL of 2.707 M sulfuric acid and 75.00 mL of magnesium hydroxide. If the specific heat of the solution is 5.79 J/(mL-K) and the temperature increased by 61.00°C, determine how much heat in kJ was absorbed by the solution. Assume no energy is lost to the environment. Report your answer to the second decimal place.

In a coffee cup calorimeter, 50.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH and 50.00 mL of 1.00 M HCl are mixed. Both solutions were originally at 24.6 C. After the reaction, the final temperature is 31.3 C. Given that the density of NaCl solution is 1.038 g/mL and the specific heat of NaCl solution is 3.87, calculate the change in enthalpy of neutralization per mole for the reaction of HCl with NaOH. Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings.
