Q: A student mixes 50 mL of 0.100 M AgNO$$_3$$ and 50 mL of 0.100 M HCl in a constant pressure calorimeter. The temperature rises from 22.30 $$^\circC to 23.11$$ $$^\circC. If $$the calorimeter constant is 335 J/$$^\circC$$, what is the total heat absorbed by the solution?

$$335 \times (23.11 - 22.30) = 270.85 J$$

Q: Which equation correctly represents the relationship between heat ($$q$$), mass ($$m$$), specific heat ($$c$$), and temperature change ($$\Delta T$$)?

$$q = m \times c \times \Delta T$$

Question 1
