9.96 Most first aid "cold packs" are based on the endothermic dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water: NH4NO3(s)NH4+(aq)+NO3(aq) H= 25.69 kJ A particular cold pack contains 50.0 g of NH4NO3 and 125.0 g of water. When the pack is squeezed, the NH4NO3dissolves in the water. If the pack and its contents are initially at 24.0°C, what is the lowest temperature that this bag could reach? (Assume that the ammonium nitrate solution has a specific heat of 4.25J g-l K-l, and that the heat capacity of the bag itself is small enough to be neglected.)
How much will the temperature of a cup (180 g) of coffee at 95 C be reduced when a 45 g silver spoon (specific heat 0.24 J/g C) at 25 C is placed in the coffee and the two are allowed to reach the same temperature? Assume that the coffee has the same density and specific heat as water.
When 7.11 g NH4NO3 is added to 100 mL water, the temperature of the calorimeter contents decreases from 22.1 C to 17.1 C. Assuming that the mixture has the same specific heat as water and a mass of 107 g, calculate the heat q. Is the dissolution of ammonium nitrate exothermic or endothermic?
9.83 A student performing a calorimetry experiment combined 100.0 mL of 0.50 M HCl and 100.0 mL of 0.50 M NaOH in a coffee cup calorimeter. Both solutions were initially at 20.0°C, but when the two were mixed, the temperature rose to 23.2°C. (a) Suppose the experiment is repeated in the same calorimeter but this time using 200 mL of 0.50 M HCl and 200.0 mL of 0.50 M NaOH. Will the T observed he greater than, less than, or equal to that in the first experiment, and why? (b) Suppose that the experiment is repeated once again in the same calorimeter, this time using 100 mL of 1.00 M HCl and 100.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH. Will the T observed he greater than, less than, or equal to that in the first experiment, and why?

Combustion of table sugar produces CO2(g) and H2O( l). When 1.46 g table sugar is combusted in a constant-volume (bomb) calorimeter, 24.00 kJ of heat is liberated. a. Assuming that table sugar is pure sucrose, C12H22O11 (s), write the balanced equation for the combustion reaction. b. Calculate E in kJ/mol C12H22O11 for the combustion reaction of sucrose.
When one mol of KOH is neutralized by sulfuric acid, q=56 kJ. (This is called the heat of neutralization.) At 23.7C, 25.0 mL of 0.475 M H2SO4 is neutralized by 0.613 M KOH in a coffee-cup calorimeter. Assume that the specific heat of all solutions is 4.18J/gC, that the density of all solutions is 1.00 g/mL, and that volumes are additive. (a) How many mL of KOH is required to neutralize H2SO4? (b) What is the final temperature of the solution?
Shown below is a diagram depicting the enthalpy change of a chemical reaction run at constant pressure. a Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? b What is the sign of H? c What is the sign of q? d If the reaction does no work, what is the sign of E for this process?
When steam condenses to liquid water, 2.26 kJ of heat is released per gram. The heat from 168 g of steam is used to heat a room containing 6.44 104 g of air (20 ft 12 ft 8 ft). The specific heat of air at normal pressure is 1.015 J/(gC). What is the change in air temperature, assuming the heat from the steam is all absorbed by air?
