A student mixed 25.0 cm³ of 4.00 mol dm⁻³ hydrochloric acid with an equal volume of 4.00 mol dm⁻³ sodium hydroxide. The initial temperature of both solutions was 15.0°C. The maximum temperature recorded was 30.0°C. Using these results, what is the enthalpy change of neutralisation of hydrochloric acid?
✓ Correct answer
