When $$100$$ mL of $$1.0$$ M HCl was mixed with $$100$$ mL of $$1.0$$ M NaOH in an insulated beaker at constant pressure, a temperature increase of $$5.7$$°C was measured for the beaker and its contents (Expt$$. $$1). Because the enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid with a strong base is a constant $$(-57.0$$ kJ $$mol-1)$$, this experiment could be used to measure the calorimeter constant. In a second experiment (Expt$$. $$2), $$100$$ mL of $$2.0$$ M acetic acid (Ka$$ $$=$$ $$2.0$$ × $$10-5) was mixed with $$100$$ mL of $$1.0$$ M NaOH (under$$ identical conditions to Expt. $$1) where a temperature rise of $$5.6$$°C was measured.(Consider$$ heat capacity of all solutions as $$4.2$$ J $$g-1K-1$$ and density of all solutions as $$1.0$$ g $$mL-1)
