when 40.0 ml of 1.00 m h2so4 is added to 80.0 ml of 1.00 m naoh at 20.00°c in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the aqueous solution increases to 29.20°c. if the mass of the solution is 120.0 g and the specific heat of the calorimeter and solution is 4.184 j/g • °c, how much heat is given off in the reaction? (ignore the mass of the calorimeter in the calculation.)

We are aked to determine the heat given off in the reaction. Heat given off is determined through the equation ΔH = mCp ΔT where m is the mass, Cp is the specific heat and ΔT is the temperature difference. Substituting, ΔH = 120 g (4.184 j/g • °c) (29.2°c). Heat given off is equal to 14.66 kJ.

I just took the test, the answer is A. 4.62 kJ
