When solid CH₃COOH is mixed with NaOH solution, the heat liberated includes:
A.
Only heat of neutralization
B.
Heat of dissolution + heat of ionization + heat of neutralization
C.
Heat of formation
D.
Only heat of dissolution
ANSWER :
B. Heat of dissolution + heat of ionization + heat of neutralization
9.
Why must ΔT be measured immediately after mixing?
A.
Heat starts dissipating to surroundings as soon as ΔT > T_room; immediate reading minimizes this loss
B.
Thermometer is slow
C.
Reaction is slow
D.
Mixing takes time
ANSWER :
A. Heat starts dissipating to surroundings as soon as ΔT > T_room; immediate reading minimizes this loss
10.
Heat liberated in neutralization is the result of formation of:
A.
Crystal lattice
B.
New ionic bond
C.
Strong O-H bond in liquid water (energy released > energy spent in ion solvation)
D.
Weak hydrogen bond
ANSWER :
C. Strong O-H bond in liquid water (energy released > energy spent in ion solvation)
11.
For weak acid HA: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq), ΔH₁; H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(l), ΔH₂. The overall ΔH for HA + NaOH → NaA + H₂O is:
A.
ΔH₁ / ΔH₂
B.
ΔH₁ × ΔH₂
C.
ΔH₁ - ΔH₂
D.
ΔH₁ + ΔH₂
ANSWER :
D. ΔH₁ + ΔH₂
12.
If the experimental enthalpy of neutralization is found to be -55 kJ/mol instead of -57.1 kJ/mol, the most likely reason is:
A.
