Equal volumes of molar hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid are neutralised by dilute \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) solution and \(\mathrm{x} \mathrm{kcal}\) and \(\mathrm{y} \mathrm{kcal}\) of heat are liberated respectively. Which of the following is true?

  1. A \(x=y\)
  2. B \(x=\frac{y}{2}\)
  3. C \(x=2 y\)
  4. D none of the above
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(x=\frac{y}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Enthalpy of \(1 \mathrm{~g}\) equivalent of strong acid and \(1 \mathrm{~g}\) equivalent strong base \(=13.7 \mathrm{kcal}\) Equal volume contains double eq. of \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\) than \(\mathrm{HCl}\)
