6cqp++q-szc n roxide is added to a sample of dilute hydrochloric acid, an exothermic reaction
cp+qn-sc z q6+ takes place.
The following graph shows the temperature of the acid during the reaction. The cooling of the solution after the initial reaction follows an approximately linear trend, as indicated by the dotted line.
What value for the temperature change, ΔT, should be used to calculate the change in energy, q, during the reaction? q=mcΔT
