Chapter 9, Problem 88

When 1.50 g of magnesium metal is allowed to react with 200 mL of 6.00 M aqueous HCl, the temperature rises from 25.0 °C to 42.9 °C. Calculate ΔH in kilojoules for the reaction, assumign that the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 776 J/°C, that the specific heat of the final soltuion is the same as that of water [4.18 J(g·°C)] and that the density of the solution is 1.00 g/mL
