For the neutralization of NaOH and HCl: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → H2O(l) + NaCl(aq)  ΔH = –57.9 kJ/mol
In a coffee cup calorimeter, 50 mL of 0.712 M NaOH was neutralized with 50 mL of 0.712 M HCl. If both solutions were initially at 25 °C, determine the final temperature of the solution. Assume that the density and heat capacity of the solution is the same as that of water.
