The enthalpies of neutralization of a weak base AOH and a strong
base BOH by HCI are -12250 mol respectively.

When one mole of HCI is added to a solution containing 1 mole of AOH and

1 mole of BOH, the enthalpy change was -12500 cal/ mol. In what ratio

the acid is distributed between AOH and BOH?

Show answer and solution
−12250x−13000(1−x)=−12500- 12250x - 13000(1 - x) = - 12500
750x=500⇒x=2/3750x = 500 \Rightarrow x = 2/3
So, required ratio is =
21\frac{2}{1}
