___is evolved during neutralisatonm reaction
Answers
Heat is evolved during neutralisation reaction.
Explanation:
The reaction between acid and a base to give a salt and water is known as a neutralisation reaction. Generally, heat is evolved during this reaction and acidic properties of the acid disappear.
The general equation will be :-
Acid + base ⸻➤ Salt + water .
For example :-
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq)⸻➤ NaCl(aq)+ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀H2O(l)
here,
HCl - hydrochloric acid
NaOH - sodium hydroxide ( base )
NaCl - Sodium Chloride ( salt )
H2O - water
Answer:
The heat (or enthalpy) of neutralization (ΔH) is the heat evolved when an acid and a base react to form a salt plus water. Q in the above equation is -ΔH and is expressed in kJ/mol of water. Neutralization reactions are generally exothermic and thus ΔH is negative.
