Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

  Molarity of [tex]H_{2}SO_{4}[/tex] = 0.500 M

    Volume [tex]H_{2}SO_{4}[/tex] solution = 21.7 mL

Hence, calculate the number of moles of sulfuric acid as follows.

No. of moles of [tex]H_{2}SO_{4}[/tex] = [tex]molarity \times volume[/tex]

                              = [tex]0.500 M \times 21.7 \times 10^{-3} L[/tex]

                              = 0.01085 mol

Now, calculate the moles of KOH as follows.

     No. of moles of KOH = [tex]\text{molarity of KOH} \times \text{volume KOH in liter}[/tex]

                                     = [tex]1.00 M \times 21.7 \times 10^{-3} L[/tex]

                                        = 0.0217 mol

As the reaction equation is as follows.

     [tex]H_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + 2KOH(aq) \rightarrow K_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + 2H_{2}O (l)[/tex]

Calculate the number of moles of water as follows.          

     No. of moles of [tex]H_{2}O[/tex] formed = [tex]2 \times moles of H_{2}SO_{4}[/tex] = (moles of KOH)

                              = 0.0217 mol

Now, total volume of the solution is as follows.

Total volume of solution = (volume [tex]H_{2}SO_{4}[/tex]) + (volume KOH)

                                          = (21.7 mL) + (21.7 mL)

                                         = 43.4 mL

Total mass of solution = [tex](\text{Total volume of solution}) \times (\text{density of solution})[/tex]

Total mass of solution = [tex]43.4 mL \times 1.00 g/mL[/tex]

                                      = 43.4 g

Heat change of solution = [tex](\text{Total mass of solution}) \times (\text{specific heat of solution}) \times (\text{final temperature - initial temperature})[/tex]

                                       = [tex](43.4 g) \times (4.184 J/g^{o}C) \times (30.17^{o}C - 23.50^{o}C)[/tex]

                                       = 1211.18 J

As, heat change of reaction = -(Heat change of solution)

Therefore, heat change of reaction = -1211.18 J

Hence, calculate the change in enthalpy as follows.

           [tex]\DeltaH = \frac{\text{Heat change of reaction}}{\text{moles of H_{2}O formed}}[/tex]

                                 = [tex]\frac{-1211.18 J}{0.0217 mol}[/tex]

                                 = -55814.56 J/mol

or,                             = -55.8 kJ/mol            (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Thus, we can conclude that [tex]\Delta H[/tex] of the given reaction is  -55.8 kJ/mol.
