Which of the following is a list of the minimum amount of data needed for determining the molar enthalpy of solution of KCl(s) in pure H2O(1) ? (Assume that the KCl(aq) has the same specific heat capacity as pure water and that the initial temperatures of the KCl(s) and the water are the same.) (A) Mass of KCl(s), initial temperature of the water, and final temperature of the solution
(B) Mass of H20, initial temperature of the water, and final temperature of the solution
(C) Mass of KCl(s), mass of H20, initial temperature of the water, and final temperature of the solution
(D) Mass of KCl(s), mass of H20, initial temperature of the water, final temperature of the solution, and atmospheric pressure

 (C) Mass of KCl(s), mass of H20, initial temperature of the water, and final temperature of the solution

Explanation:

molar enthalpy of solution of KCl(s) is heat evolved or absorbed when one mole of KCl is dissolved in water to make pure solution . The heat evolved or absorbed can be calculated by the following relation.

Q = msΔt where m is mass of solution or water , s is specific heat and Δt is change in temperature of water .

So data required is mass of water or solution , initial and final temperature of solution , specific heat of water is known .

Now to know molar heat , we require mass of solute or KCl dissolved to know heat heat absorbed or evolved by dissolution of one mole of solute .

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.
