- When 17.98 g of calcium chloride (CaCl2) is dissolved in 681.87 g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter at 26.4°C, the temperature increased to 28.4 °C. Assuming that the specific heat of the mixture is the same as the specific heat of pure water (4.184 J/g-°C), calculate the AH (in kJ/mol CaCl2) in the dissolution process. MW of CaCl2 = 110.9g/mol CaCl2 (s) →→ Ca+2 (aq) + 2 CI¯ (aq) Show your complete solution.

NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) This precipitation reaction produces 2.60 ✕ 103 J of heat, assuming no heat is absorbed by the calorimeter, no heat is exchanged between the calorimeter and its surroundings, and that the specific heat and density of the solutions are the same as those for water (4.18 J/g·°C, and 0.997 g/mL, respectively). Using this data, calculate ΔH in kJ/mol of AgNO3(aq) for the given reaction. This is the complete question, nothing was left out.

The temperature of the solution rises from 20.0˚C to 30.4˚C. Assume the coffee cup itself gains no heat and that the solution has the same density (1.00 g/mL) and specific heat (4.184 J/g˚C) as pure water.
