A 100.00 ml of volume of 0.500 M HCl was mixed with 100.00 ml of 0.500 M KOH in a constant pressure calorimeter. The initial temperature of individual acid and base was 23.0 oC. The final temperature after mixing was 25.5 oC. The specific heat of the solution was 3.97 J g-1 oC-1 Assume the density of the solution is 1.00 g mL-1 a) Calculate the heat of the reaction in kJ. (Be sure to use signs correctly.)

b) Calculate the enthalpy of the reaction in kJ/mol. (Be sure to use signs correctly.)
