Determine the enthalpy of neutralization of the reaction


A sample of 50.0 mL of 1.0 M NaOH is added to 25.0 mL of 0.25 M H2SO4 solution placed into a calorimeter. The calorimeter has a calorimetric constant of 15.0 J/oC. Both solutions are at 20.0oC. The maximum temperature of the solution after the reaction is terminated is 21.0oC. Determine the enthalpy of neutralization of the reaction. 2NaOH(aq) + H2SO4(aq) Na2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) Assume the volumes are additive and the specific heat of the solution is 3.90 J/goC. The density of the solution in the calorimeter is 1.05 g/mL
