The heat of neutralisation of a strong base and a strong acid is 13.7 kcal. The heat released when 0.7 mole HBr solution is added to 0.35 mole of KOH is
Options
- A5.425 kcal
- B13.7 kcal
- C4.795 kcal
- D8.795 kcal
Correct answer
C. 4.795 kcal
Step-by-step solution
For the neutralization between a strong and a strong base, equal number of moles of H + (from acid) and O ̄ H (from base) come out. For one mole of each following equation can be drawn So, 0.35 mole of H 2 O is produced. So, heat released = ( 0.35 × 13.7 ) k c a l = 4.795 k c a l
