Reaction involving gold have been of particular interest to a chemist. Consider the following reactions,
Au(OH)3+4HCl→HAuCl4+3H2O, ΔH=−28kCal
Au(OH)3+4HBr→HAuBr4+3H2O, ΔH=−36.8kCal
In an experiment there was an absorption of 0.44kCal when one mole of HAuBr4 was mixed with 4 moles of HCl. What is the percentage conversion of HAuBr4 into HAuCl4?
