1) The reaction of magnesium with sulfuric acid was carried out in a calorimeter. This reaction caused the temperature of 55. grams of liquid water, within the calorimeter, to raise from 1.0oC to 28.oC. Calculate the energy associated with this reaction.
Q = C x m x deltaT
C = 4200 J/kg°C
1oC = 1 K
Q = 4200 x 0.05 x (28 - 1) = 5670 J
