I Have a question about the following reaction:
H2 + CuSO4 ----> Cu + H2SO4
I have to find the heat of reaction for the equation in lab, i'm using Hess' law and i have the theoretical heat of formation for both copper sulfate and the sulphuric acid, but i'm not 100% sure of how to find them in the lab. I'm using a temp. probe with a home made calorimitor (hope thats how you spell it). will i be able to react straight copper with the sulphiric acid? and does anyone have any ideas? any help would be greatly appreciated.
