Question

The temperature of a $5$ ml of strong acid increases by $5^o$C when $5$ ml of a strong base is added to it. If $10$ ml of each are mixed temperature should increase by.

• A. $5^o$C
• B. ${10}^o$C
• C. ${15}^o$C
• D. Cannot be known

Answer 1

The correct option is A $5^o$C

• The temperature is rising due to the neutralisation reaction, and it depends upon the equivalent of acid and base,
  
• In the above condition, both times equivalent of acid and base is same so the temperature rising will be the same.

The correct option is [A].
