Question

When equal volume of 1M HCl and 1M \(H_2SO_4\) are separately neutralised by excess volume of 1M NaOH solution, x and y kJ of heat is liberated respectively. The value of y/x is ______ .

Answer 1

Correct answer is : 2

\(H^+ + OH ^- \rightarrow H_2 O \Rightarrow x\)

\(2H ^+ + 2OH ^- \rightarrow 2 H_2 O \Rightarrow 2x = y\)

\(y/x = 2\)
