Find the enthalpy for a constant pressure calorimetry reaction where the reaction occurs in a 250ml aqueous solution. The temperature changes from 25.0c to 26.1 c

Assume that cool = 4.18j/gt

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the calorimeter contains a solution for which the specific heat is 4.18 J/g°C, which is equal to that of the water, we can also notice that the density is 1.00 g/mL and therefore the present mass is 250 g. In such a way, we compute the enthalpy change as shown below:

[tex]\Delta H=mC\Delta T[/tex]

Thus, by plugging in the mass, specific heat and temperature change, we obtain:

[tex]\Delta H=250g*4.18\frac{J}{g\°C}(26.1\°C-25.0\°C)\\\\\Delta H=1149.5J[/tex]

Best regards!
