When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter. In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 6.84 g of CsBr(s) are dissolved in 116.00 g of water, the temperature of the solution drops from 24.93 to 23.05 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.85 J/°C. Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of CsBr(s) in kJ/mol. Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water. AHdissolution kJ/mol
