Question

Sodium metal reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide according to the chemical equation shown below. When 0.0300 mol of Na is added to 100.00 g of water, the temperature of the resulting solution rises from 25.00C to 37.90C. If the specific heat of the solution is 4.18 J/(g C), calculate H for the reaction, as written.
2 Na(s) + 2 H2O(l) -> 2 NaOH(aq) + H2(g) H = ?
A) -5.41 kJ
B) -90. 0 kJ
C) -180 kJ
D) -364 kJ
