Consider the reaction: NaNO3(s) + H2SO4(l) NaHSO4(s) + HNO3(g) ΔH° = 21.2 kJ How much heat must absorbed by the reaction system to convert 100g of NaNO3 into NaHSO4(s)?
Please anyone help me out

Data obtained from the question

NaNO₃ + H₂SO₄ —> NaHSO₄(s) + HNO₃ ΔH° = 21.2 KJ

Determination of the mass of NaNO₃ that was converted from the balanced equation.

Molar mass of NaNO₃ = 23 + 14 + (16×3)

= 23 + 14 + 48

= 85 g/mol

Mass of NaNO₃ from the balanced equation = 1 × 85 = 85 g

Thus, 85 g of NaNO₃ were converted from the balanced equation.

Determination of the heat absorbed by converting 100 g of NaNO₃.

From the balanced equation above,

When 85 g of NaNO₃ were converted, 21.2 KJ were absorbed by the system.

Thus, the conversion of 100 g of NaNO₃ will cause the system to absorb = 24.9 KJ of heat energy.

Therefore, the system will absorb 24.9 KJ of heat energy.
