When 40.0 mL of 1.00 M H2SO4 is added to 80.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH at 20.00°C in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the aqueous solution increases to 29.20°C. If the mass of the solution is 120.0 g and the specific heat of the calorimeter and solution is 4.184 J/g • °C, how much heat is given off in the reaction?
Use q equals m C subscript p Delta T..

A). 4.62 kJ
B). 10.0 kJ
C). 14.7 kJ
D). 38.5 kJ

4.62 kJ of heat is given off in the reaction.

Explanation:

Let's assume specific heat of calorimeter is negligible.

So, amount of heat given off, q = heat absorbed by solution

                                                    = ()

where, m is mass, C is specific heat and is change in temperature.

So, q =

         = 4619 J

         = 4.62 kJ (3 sig. fig.)

Option (A) is correct

gravity causes stares to cluster i think so

answer: - 3.) the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

solution: - as per the rules, oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2. the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a molecule or compound is zero.

also, the oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

in no, the oxidation number of o is -2 so the oxidation number of n is +2 so that the sum is zero.

similarly, the oxidation number of c in co is +2 and o is -2.

on product side the oxidation number of n is 0 as it is in the elemental form() .

oxidation number of c in carbon dioxide is +4 as there are two oxygen in it and we know that each oxygen is -2.

so, oxidation number of n is changing from +2 to 0 and the oxidation number of c is changing from +2 to +4.

since nitrogen is reduced and hence no is acting as an oxidizing agent. carbon is oxidized and so co is acting as a reducing agent.

so, the right choice is number 3.)the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.
