Experiment 1
Q = m . c . t
= 50 g . 4,2 j.g-1.oC-1 . 7oC
= 1442 joule
Mole NaOH = 2/ 40 = 0,05
H1 per mole
= -28840 j
= -28,84 kJ

Experiment 2
Q = m . c . t
= 100 g . 4,2 j.g-1.oC-1 . 2oC
= 840 joule
Mole NaOH = 2/ 40 = 0,05
Mole HCl = 50 ml . 0,5 M = 0,025
H2 per mole
= -33600 j
= -33,600 kJ

Experiment 2
Q = m . c . t
= 150 g . 4,2 j.g-1.oC-1 . 3oC
= 1890 joule
Mole NaOH = 2/ 40 = 0,05
Mole HCl = 50 ml . 0,5 M = 0,05
H2 per mole
= -37800 j
= -37,8 kJ

Experiment 3
Q = m . c . t
= 100 g . 4,2 j.g-1.oC-1 . 9oC
= 3780 joule
Mole NaOH = 2/ 40 = 0,05
Mole HCl = 100 ml . 0,5 M = 0,0 5
H3 per mole
= -75600 j
= -75,600 kJ

1.

1. Total equation of the reaction

thermochemistry I and II (twice experiment)
H1 + H2 =
-28,84 kJ + (-33,600 kJ) = -62,44 kJ
H1 + H2 =
-28,84 kJ + (-37,8 kJ) = -66,64 kJ
2. Write the equation of the reaction thermochemistry III
H3 = -75,600 kJ
3. Whether the reaction of III equal to the total
of reactions I dan II? No, but equal reaction

and II less than reaction III

4. According to Hess law : HI + HII = HIII

Whether your data of experiment appropriate with
Hess Law?
Yes, although equal HI + HII from my
experiment less than asses HIII
5. If not, mentioned several factors cause it!
Mistake of balance sodium hydroxide solid,
because this balance is not stable, mistake of
observation, and mistake of measurement.
