OCR A-level ChemistryAcids, Bases and BuffersLesson 15 of 15

The standard enthalpy of neutralisation ΔHneut is the enthalpy change when an acid and a base react to form 1 mole of water under standard conditions (1.0 moldm-3, 298K, 100kPa). The enthalpy of neutralisation is the sum of the enthalpy of ionisation of the acid and base and the enthalpy of the reaction
