Sodium metal reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide according to the chemical equation shown below. When 0.025 mol of Na is added to 100.00 g of water, the temperature of the resulting solution rises from 25.00 C to 35.75 C. If the specific heat of the solution is 4.18 J/(g deg C), calculate H for the reaction, as written.
2 Na + 2 H20 --> 2 NaOH + H2 Delta H = ?
A. -5.41 kJ
B. -90.0 kJ
C. -180 kJ
D. -360 kJ
