Mg(O)(s) + 2HCl(aq) MgCl2(aq) + H2O(l) will be
Mg(O)(s) + 2HCl(aq) MgCl2(aq) + H2O(l) will be
- A57.33 kJ mol1
- Bgreater than 57.33 kJ mol1
- Cless than 57.33 kJ mol1
- D57.33 kJ mol1

Correct answer: C
We know that enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid
and a strong base is –57.33 kJ mol–1.
Here, MgO
is the weak base and HCl is a strong acid thus, a
small amount of energy is used in the ionization
of MgO thus, the heat of neutralization decreases.
Therefore, enthalpy of neutralization is less than
– 57.33 kJ mol–1
