In an experiment to determine the molar heat of neutralization of hydrochloric acid
with sodium hydroride, students of Furaha Secondary school reacted 100cm3 of 1M
hydrochloric acid with 50cm3 of 2M sodium hydroxide solution. They obtained the following results.
Initial temperature of acid = 25.00C
Initial temperature of base = 25.00C
Highest temperature reached
With the acid – alkali mixture = 34.00C
(a) Write an ionic equation for the neutralization reaction between hydrochloric acid
and sodium hydroxide.
(b ) Calculate :
(i) The change in temperature.
(ii) The amount of heat produced during the reaction.
( Specific heat capacity of solution = 4.2 kJkg-1k-1 )
(iii) The molar heat of neutralization of sodium hydroxide.
(c) Write the thermochemical equation for the reaction.
(d) Draw an energy level diagram for the reaction.
