Question
An energy change called enthalpy of solution, ΔHsol, occurs when a substance dissolves in water.

Transcribed Image Text:A student places 125g of liquid water, H,01), at 24 °C into a coffee-cup calorimeter, and
then adds 10.5g of solid potassium bromide, KBr (s) , and 1.6mol of unknown substance,
also at 24°C. He stirs the liquid until the potassium bromide and unknown substance fully
dissolve, and then determines that the temperature has changed to 19 °C. KBr and
unknown substance do not react with each other.
We know that molar enthalpy change for dissolution reaction, AH
bromide is 18357J/mol. Calculate the molar enthalpy change for the dissolution reaction
of unknown substance, AH sol·
sol
of potassium
Assume that the specific heat capacity, c, of the liquid in the coffee-cup calorimeter is the
same as the specific heat capacity of water, 4.18J/(g°C).
