Question

Observations during a thermodynamics experiment are:

The enthalpy of ionization of  in  is .

Canvas Classes · Accepted Answer

Strategy:
 Enthalpy of neutralization for a strong acid and strong base is consistently . For weak acids, the observed enthalpy is less negative because energy is consumed in the ionization step. Use Hess's Law: .
