QUESTIONS

1. You are provided with:
   • 1.5 g of solid R
   • Solution P which is dilute hydrochloric acid
   • Solution Q that was made by dissolving 12g of sodium hydroxide in 500cm³ of water
     You are required to:
     1. Calculate the molar enthalpy change for the reaction between solid R and dilute hydrochloric acid.
     2. Standardize hydrochloric acid solution P using sodium hydroxide solution Q.

PROCEDURE 1
Using a clean burette, transfer 50cm³ of solution P into a clean 100ml plastic beaker. Measure the temperature of solution P for every ½ minute up to 1 minute and record your results in table 1.
At exactly 1½ minutes add all solid R at once stir the mixture carefully with the thermometer. Measure the temperature of the solution after every ½minute up to 5th minute. Record your results in table 1 below. (RETAIN THIS SOLUTION FOR USE IN PROCEDURE II

Temperature (0c)				X

1. Draw a graph of temperature against time in the grid provided below (3mks)
   
2. From the graph, calculate the temperature change for the reaction. (1mk)
3. Calculate the energy change for the reaction between solid R and dilute hydrochloric acid. (1mk)
   (S.H.C= 4.2J/g/k, density = 1g/cm³)
4. Determine the enthalpy change for the reaction between one mole of solid R and dilute hydrochloric acid solution P. (RFM of solid R=84) (1½mks)

PROCEDURE II
Transfer all the solution formed from procedure I into a clean 250ml beaker. Using a measuring cylinder add 50cm3 of distilled water to the solution and swirl. Label this solution as solution R. Empty the burette and rinse it with distilled water. Fill the burette with solution R. Using pipette filler, pipette 25cm³ of sodium hydroxide solution Q into a clean conical flask. Titrate solution R against solution Q using phenolphthalein indicator. Record your results in table II. Repeat the titration two more times and complete table II below.
