Answer to Question #63446 in General Chemistry for Jessa Myrrh Duhig

Question

6.6B When 50.0 ml of 0.0100 M AgNO3 and 50.0 mL of 0.100 M HCl are mixed in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temperature of the mixture increases from 22.30°C to 23.11°C. The temperature increase is caused by the reaction:

AgNO3(aq) + HCl(aq) -> AgCl(s) + HNO3(aq)

Calculate ∆H for this reaction, assuming that the combined solution has a mass of 100.0g and a specific heat of 4.184J/gK.
