How much heat would evolve if acid and base mixed


As a routine safety procedure, acids and bases should be stored separately in a laboratory. Concentrated hydrochloric acid is 12.0 M and the molarity of 25% ammonium, hydroxide is 13.4 M. Both are sold in 2.5 L bottles. If there were an accident and the two bottles broke and the acid and base mixed, how much heat would evolve?

NH4OH(aq)+ HCL(aq)→NH4CL(aq)+H2O(l)

ΔH°= -50.49kj
