4. When 1.00 L of 1.00 M Ba(NO3)2 solution at 25.0˚C is mixed with 1.00 L of 1.00 M Na2SO4 solution at 25.0˚C in a calorimeter, the white solid BaSO4 forms, and the temperature of the mixture increases. What is the final temperature of the mixture if the enthalpy change is – 26 kJ per mol BaSO4 formed? The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g ·˚C, and the density of water is 1.00 g/mL

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture is 28.11 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of 1.00 M Ba(NO3)2 = 1.00 L

Temperature = 25.0 °C

Volume of 1.00 M Na2SO4 = 1.00 L

enthalpy change is – 26 kJ per mol BaSO4

The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g ·˚C

the density of water is 1.00 g/mL

Step 2: The balanced equation

Ba(NO3)2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) → 2NaNO3(aq) + BaSO4(s)

Step 3: Calculate the total volume

Total volume = 1.00 L + 1.00 L = 2.00 L = 2000 mL

Step 4: Calculate mass

Mass = volume * density

Mass = 2000 mL * 1g/mL

Mass = 2000 grams

Step 5: Calculate moles BaSO4 formed

For 1 mol Ba(NO3)2 we need 1 mol Na2SO4 to produce 1 mol BaSO4

There is no limiting reactant, both Ba(NO3)2 and Na2SO4 will be completely be consumed (1 mol). We'll have 1.0 mol of BaSO4 produced.

Step 6: Calculate Q

Q = - ΔH

ΔH is negative so the reaction is exothermic, what means the temperature increases

Q is always positive, so Q = 26kJ = 26000 J

Step 6: Calculate the heat transfer

Q= m*c*ΔT

⇒with Q = the heat transfer = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with m =the mass of the solution = 2000 grams

⇒with c= the specific heat of the solution = 4.18 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT = the change of temperature = T2 - T1 = T2 - 25.0

26000 = 2000 * 4.18 * (T2 - 25.0 °C)

3.11 = T2 - 25.0 °C

T2 = 25.0 + 3.11 °C

T2 = 28.11 °C

The final temperature of the mixture is 28.11 °C
