2. When sodium hydroxide is added to water at 28 ˚C, the temperature of the solution increases to
40 ˚C
A. The enthalpy change is positive
B. Energy is released to the surroundings
C. The reaction is endothermic
D. More energy is absorbed to break the ionic bonds between the Na + ion and OH-
4. The diagram below shows the energy profile diagrams of reaction. Which letter in diagram
represents the energy necessary for the reaction to take place?
5. Consider the following equation for the reaction between sodium hydroxide and phosphoric acid
6. When 0.2 mol of sodium nitrate dissolved in 100 cm3 of water, the temperature decreased by
7.2˚C. Assuming that the specific heat capacity of the solution is 4.2 J g-1 ˚C-1 , the heat of
solution of sodium nitrate is:
A. 604.8 J mol -1
B. 3024 J mol -1
C. 15.12 kJ mol -1
D. 151.2 kJ mol -1
A. Explosive
B. Endothermic
C. Exothermic
D. A displacement Reaction
8. Endothermic reactions:
A. Produce heat
B. Take very long
C. Are more common than exothermic reactions
D. Result in a fall in temperature in the surroundings
30.0˚C, are mixed together in a Styrofoam cup. On mixing the temperature rises to 38.9 ˚C.
Heat evolved = mass (g) x specific heat capacity, C (Jg-1 ˚C-1) x change in temperature
12. It is observed that whenever a strong acid (such as HCl or HNO3) is completely neutralized
by a strong base (such as NaOH or KOH), the heat of neutralization (in kJ mol-1 ) is the same.
Account for this observation.
