SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on calculating the enthalpy of solution for sulfuric acid (H2SO4) in water at 30°C for concentrations of 0.2, 0.5, and 1 mol/kg. A participant attempted to utilize an enthalpy-concentration diagram but faced difficulties in interpretation. The relevant resource provided is a PDF document from NorFalco that contains necessary data for the calculation. The goal is to determine the theoretical enthalpy of solution to compare with experimental results.
