The dissociation of a weak carboxylic acid HA has a standard equilibrium constant \(K_a = 1.0\times10^{-5}\) at \(298\;\text{K}\). When the temperature is raised to \(318\;\text{K}\) the pH of a \(0.10\;\text{M}\) solution of HA changes from 3.00 to 2.80. Assuming the enthalpy change \(\Delta H^\circ\) for the dissociation is temperature‑independent over this range, calculate \(\Delta H^\circ\) in kJ mol\(^{-1}\) (to two significant figures).

Answer Options

A. 30 kJ mol⁻¹
B. 25 kJ mol⁻¹
Correct Answer C. 37 kJ mol⁻¹
D. 45 kJ mol⁻¹
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
37 kJ mol⁻¹
