Nitric acid, which is among the top 15 chemicals produced in the United States, was first prepared over 1200 years ago by heating naturally occurring sodium nitrate (called saltpeter) with sulfuric acid and collecting the vapors produced. Calculate H°rxn for this reaction. H°f [NaNO3(s)] = -467.8 kJ/mol; H°f [NaHSO4(s)] = -1125.5 kJ/mol; H°f [H2SO4(l) = -814.0 kJ/mol; H°f [HNO3(g)] = -135.1 kJ/mol NaNO3(s) + H2SO4(l) NaHSO4(s) + HNO3(g)

The Starship Enterprise is caught in a time warp and Spock is forced to use the primitive techniques of the 20th century to determine the specific heat capacity of an unknown mineral. The 307-g sample was heated to 98.7°C and placed into a calorimeter containing 72.4 g of water at 23.6°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was 15.7 J/K. The final temperature in the calorimeter was 32.4°C. What is the specific heat capacity of the mineral?
