Question
Statement I: Heat evolved in the neutralization of either 1 mole of $HCl$ or 1 mole of $H_2SO_4$ with $NaOH$ is same.<br><br>Statement II: Both, $HCl$ and $H_2SO_4$ are strong acids.
Answer: D
π‘ Solution & Explanation
1 mole of $HCl$ contains 1 g-equivalent of H+, releasing 13.7 kcal of heat on neutralization. 1 mole of $H_2SO_4$ contains 2 g-equivalents of H+, which will release twice the heat (27.4 kcal). Thus, the heat evolved is different. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
