A flow chart of the steps to calculate heat of reaction
Some assumptions are made during calculation when using this
formula:
Q = mc  

The density of any aqueous solution is equal to the density


of water, 1g cm-3.
The specific heat capacity of any aqueous solution is equal
to the specific heat capacity of water, which is 4.2 J g-1 oC-1.
No heat is loss to the surroundings

No heat is absorbed by the apparatus of the experiment.


Heat of precipitation
