Explanation / Answer

Calorimetric experiment

NaOH dissolved in water

Exothermic reaction

f. Reaction of dissolution,

NaOH(s) + H2O(l) ---> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) + H2O(l)

g. dH from heat of formation,

Given the heat of formations for NaOH(s), Na+(aq) and OH-(aq) species

using the relation,

dH = dH(products) - dH(reactants)

      = (-240 - 230) - (-425)

      = -45 kJ

This values is then compared to the value we obtained in part e.
