Describe an experiment to determine the heat of
neutralization between dilute hydrochloric acid and
sodium hydroxide solution.

dilute hydrochloric acid
100 cm3 of 2 mol dm-3

Plastic cup aqueous sodium hydroxide
Procedure:
1. 50 cm3 of 2.0 mol dm-3 sodium hydroxide solution is
measured using a measuring cylinder and poured into a
plastic cup.
2. The initial temperature of sodium hydroxide solution is
measured after a few minutes.
3. 50 cm3 of 2.0 mol dm-3 hydrochloric acid is measured using
another measuring cylinder and poured into a plastic cup.
4. The initial temperature of hydrochloric acid solution is
measured after a few minutes.
5. The hydrochloric acid is then poured quickly and carefully
into the sodium hydroxide solution.
6. The mixture is stirred using thermometer and the highest
temperature reached is recorded.
All neutralization process can be presented by the following ionic

equation
H+ + OH- H2O H = -57 kJ mol-1
Heat of neutralization for strong acid and strong alkali is same,

that is -57 kJ mol-1
Heat of neutralization for weak acid and strong alkali is less than
-57 kJ mol-1
Heat of neutralization for weak acid and weak alkali is much
lesser
Strong acid & strong alkali
Explanation:
Strong acid ionise completely in water to produce high
concentration of hydrogen ions
HCl H+ + Cl-
1 mol of hydrogen ions reacts with 1 mol of hydroxide
ions to form I mol of water to release 57 kJ of heat
energy
KOH/NaOH with HCl/HNO3
Weak acid & strong alkali
Explanation:
Weak acid ionise partially in water to produce low
concentration of hydrogen ions
CH3COOH + CH3COO- + H+
Most of the ethanoic acid still remains in the form of
molecule
Thus the heat release is always less than 57 kJ
Weak acid & weak alkali
Explanation:
More heat energy is needed to dissociate both the
weak acid and weak alkali completely to produce
hydrogen ions.
Monoprotic acid & Diprotic acid
H2SO4 + 2NaOH Na2SO4 + 2H2O H = - 114.6 kJ

HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O H = - 57.3 kJ
Explain the differences of heat of reaction.

1. H2SO4 is a diprotic acid while HCl is monoprotic acid.
2. H2SO4 will produce 2 mole of H+ ions and HCl produce 1 mole of
H+ ion
3. Neutralization of a diprotic acid will produce twice heat energy
than monoprotic acid

Describe an experiment to determine the heat of

combustion of butanol in the laboratory.
In your description include a labelled diagram,
procedure and tabulation of data

2. Poured into a copper tin.
3. The initial temperature of water is measured and
recorded, 1 .
4. The spirit lamp is filled with butanol and weighed, x g
5. A spirit lamp is light and put under the copper tin.

6. The water is stirred continuously with a thermometer
7. When the temperature of water increased by 30 C, the
flame is put off
8. The spirit lamp is weighed again, y g
9. The highest temperature is recorded, 2
Heat of Combustion

Final mass of spirit lamp + butanol / g y
Mass of butanol used / g x-y = z

completely in excess oxygen, the heat released
increases the temperature of 600 g of water by
12.5 C. Calculate the heat of combustion of
glucose.
[Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1 C-1,
density of water = 1.0 g cm-3, RAM: H = 1, C = 12,
O = 16]
When 1 mole of butanol is burnt in excess of
oxygen, 2600 kJ of heat is produced. Calculate
the mass of butanol needed to burn completely
in oxygen in order to raise the temperature of
250 cm3 of water by 30 C.
[Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1 C-1,
density of water = 1.0 g cm-3, RAM: H = 1, C = 12,

againts the magnitude of the heat of combustion.

From the graph:
1. State the relationship between the number of
carbon atoms in an alcohol and the heat of
combustion
2. Predict the heat of combustion of hexanol
Compare the heat of combustion between ethanol and
butanol. Explain why there is a difference in the heat of
combustion between ethanol and butanol.
1. The heat of combustion of butanol is higher than
ethanol.
2. Butanol has higher number of carbons per molecules
than ethanol
3. Butanol will produced more carbon dioxide and water
than ethanol
4. The combustion of butanol produced more heat than
ethanol.
