When 100 mL of 1.0 M HCl was mixed with 100 mL of 1.0 M NaOH in an insulated beaker at constant pressure, a temperature increase of 5.7°C was measured for the beaker and its contents (Expt. 1). Because the enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid with a strong base is a constant (−57.0 kJ mol−1), this experiment could be used to measure the calorimeter constant. In a
second experiment (Expt. 2), 100 mL of 2.0 M acetic
(Ka = 2.0 × 10−5) was mixed with 100 mL of 1.0 M NaOH (under identical conditions to Expt. 1) where a temperature rise of 5.6°C was measured.
(Consider heat capacity of all solutions as 4.2J g−1 K−1 and density of all solutions as 1.0 g mL−1)
 
Enthalpy of dissociation (in kJ mol−1) of acetic acid obtained from the Expt. 2 is
  1. 1.0
  2. 10.0
  3. 24.5
  4. 51.4

Answer

(A) 1.0
