Solution
The correct option is B 11.4 kJ 0.2 moles of HNO3 will be neutralized with 0.2 moles of KOH. 0.3 moles of HNO3 will remain unneutralized.
The heat of neutralisation of a strong acid and a strong alkali is 57.0 kJ /mol.
When 0.2 moles of HNO3 is neutralized with 0.2 moles of KOH, the heat of neutralisation is
