Heat of neutralization describes one of the effects of mixing a base with an equally strong acid. This neutralizes the substance, which changes the substance's heat as a result.

Does the heat of neutralization reaction depend on the number of hydrogen atoms in a molecule of acid?

No. The rate of the neutralization reaction is concentration dependent, but the "heat of neutralization" is defined on a molar basis already, so it is not.


Why does the temperature increase and decrease during neutralization?

Neutralization is an exothermic chemical reaction and thus heat is given out.


Does changing the concentration of an acid affect the temperature at neutralisation?

Yes, heat of neutralization is directly proportional to the concentration of the acid. the more the concentration the more the heat emitted at the time of neutralization.


What is heat of neutralization between HCl and NaOH?

-55.8 KJ/mol


What is the heat of neutralization of nitric acid?

The Enthalpy of neutralization of all strong acids are almost the same. It is between -58 to -59 kilojoules per mole.


Is heat of neutralization same for every acid-base pair?

no every acid base pair does not have same heat of neutralisation.


Why is the heat of neutralization for HBr reacting with NaOH and HNO3 reacting with KOH solution be identical?

First, write the net-ionic reactions for both neutralization reactions. Notice anything? They have the same net-ionic reaction! So, their heats of neutralization will be the same.


How is the heat of neutralization of acetic acid different from that of HCL or H₂SO₄?

Acetic acid is a weak acid while HCl or H2SO4 are both strong acids. Being strong acids, the heat given off during neutralization is much greater.


What is the largest source of error during conducting heat neutralization?

Inadequate measuring of the temperature change


Define heat and thermodynamics?

My answer about heat is that heat is a form of energy which causes the sensation of hotness and coldness.And thermo dynamic is one of the characteristics resulting from the conversion of heat into other forms of energy.
