How do you find the enthalpy of a salt?
I need to find the enthalpy of a solution from a lab I did in class here's the only info I have:
50 mL of water @ 25 degrees C inside of a calorimeter Poured in 3.004 g of an unknown salt. The temperature dropped from 25 to 21 degrees C I need to identify the salt via the enthalpy (in kJ/g) can anyone help? |

Your lab book or textbook will give the formula for determining the heat of solution.
You have data for delta T, the mass of solute and can look up the heat capacity of water. After conversions you will have the heat of solution in kJ/g. There must be tables available to you that give enthalpies of solution for various compounds, The data will probably be in kJ/MOLE so you will have to convert mole weights to grams. Hint just do this for the compounds that COOL the solution. That will narrow the field. |

Hi, I am converting my swimming pool (25000 gallons of water) into a salt water pool. I just bought the Jandy generator and I need to get 80 lbs of salt ( I think) . It clearly states to get 100 percent NAC1. Can I use Dead Sea Salt?
A calorimeter contains 30.0 mL of water at 12.0 C. When 1.60 g of X (a substance with a molar mass of 45.0 g/mol) is added, it dissolves via the reaction X (s) + H2O (l) → X (aq) and the temperature of the solution increases to 28.5 C. Calculate the enthalpy change, Delta H, for this...
My 80 year old grandpaw was told to cut down on his salt intake. We bought the no-salt substitute because he would not cut down on the amount of salt he used. His taste buds are not working correctly because he can not tell the difference. If you have ever tried it you knoe what I mean. Anyway,...
Re: Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). My car was pelted by salt pellets being sprayed on the Kennedy Expy. Near Chicago. The pavement was totally dry thus causing the pellets to fly into my car which was traveling at 55 mph, damaging the hood and fenders extensively to the tune of over...
Im a currently struggling with these two enthalapy problems. #1 If F2(g) + H2(g) --> 2HF(g) H= -542kJ, what is the Standard Heat of Formation for HF? Is this going to be the same as the enthalaphy of the reaction = -542 or is going to be half of that = -271kJ. #2 When 1.00g of...
