When equal volume of 1 M HCl and 1 M are separately neutralised by excess volume of 1 M NaOH solution, x and y kJ of heat is liberated respectively. The value of is ________. [2024]
(2)
Let 1 L of 1 MHCl and VL of 1 M are used.

Net reaction of NaOH with results in combination of two moles of with two mol of whereas, net reaction of NaOH with HCl results in combination of one mol of with one mol of . Thus y is twice of .
