Assume the density and heat capacity of the solution to be


When 10.0 mL of a 2.0 M acetic acid solution at 20.6ºC is reacted with 10.0 mL of a 2.1 M NaOH solution at 21.0ºC in a coffee cup calorimeter, the resulting temperature of the solution was determined to be 28.6ºC. Calculate the heat of reaction for this acid-base neutralization. Assume the density and heat capacity of the solution to be the same as water. (d=1.00 g/mL and Cp=4.184J/gºC) The calorimeter constant was 2.7 J/ºC
