Use the following formula to calculate the answers to the questions below.
(remember that m is always for the substance that you are measuring the
temperature change, usually water or acid)
H
= - m(H2O)(c) t

1) A student mixed 100.0 ml of 1.50 mol/l sulfuric acid with 200.0 ml of 1.50
mol/l sodium hydroxide. Both solutions were at 19.67 C initially and the
highest temperature reached by the reaction mixture was 34.06 C.
b) Calculate the total volume of the two solutions (both sulfuric acid
and sodium hydroxide). This is mostly water!
2) Calculate the molar enthalpy for the solidification of gallium metal (Ga) if
10.0 g of gallium causes 50.0 ml of water to change temperature from
24.0 to 27.8 C when it solidifies from a liquid. What is the temperature
change that would result if 45.0 g of Ga were used?
