Question
As a 0.1 mole sample of solid NH4Cl was dissolved in 50 ml of water, the temperature of the solution decreased. A small electrical immersion heater restored the temperature of the system by passing 0.125 A from a 15 V power supply for a period of 14 min. The value of ΔH for the process NH4Cl(s) → NH4Cl(aq) is
Options
A.−15.75 kJ
B.+15.75 kJ
C.−787.5 J
D.+787.5 J
Solution
$q = v.i.t = 15 \times 0.125 \times (14 \times 60)\text{ J = 1575 J}$
$\therefore\Delta H = \frac{1575}{0.1} \times 1 = 15750\text{ J/mol}$
