    When \[50\text{ }c{{m}^{3}}\] of \[0.2\,N\,{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] is mixed with \[50\,\,c{{m}^{3}}\] of 1 N KOH, the heat liberated is:

    A)  11.46 kJ              

    B)  57.3 kJ

    C)  573 kJ                                  

    D)  573 J

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The number of gram-equivalents of     \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}=0.2\times \frac{50}{1000}=1.0\times {{10}^{-2}}\] The number of gram-equivalents of                 \[KOH=1\times \frac{50}{1000}\]                                 \[=5\times {{10}^{-2}}\] We know that 57.3 kj heat is evolved when one gram-equivalent of strong acid (like\[({{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}})\] and one gram-equivalent of strong base (like KOH) are neutralised. Here \[1.0\times {{10}^{-2}}\] gram-equivalent of \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] is neutralised by \[1.0\times {{10}^{-2}}\] gram-equivalent of KOH hence the heat evolved will be \[=57.3\,kj\times 1.0\times {{10}^{-2}}\] \[=57.3\,kj\times 1.0\times {{10}^{-2}}\] = 573 j
