Explanation / Answer


Mean T of unmixed reagents = (T(reagent1)+T(reagent2))/2=(23.4+2.7)/2=13.1^0 C
T=T_final-T_initial=35.75-13.1=22.65^0 C
q_(reac.mix)=(V_HCl+V_NaOH )*d*C_(reac.mix) T=100*1.04*3.89*22.65=9163.284 J
q_cal=C_cal*T=46.6*22.65=1055.49 J
q_tot=q_(reac.mix)+q_cal=9163.284+1055.49=10218.774 J
q_(released by reaction)=q_tot=10218.774 J
The limiting reagent is HCl because it is the smallest No. of moles and upon it the liberated quantity of heat determined
H_(neut.)=q_tot/n_(limiting reagent) =q_tot/((V_HCl*M_HCl/1000))=10218.774/((50*2.00297/1000))=10218.774/0.1001485=102036.216 J/mol
