Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

Given that \(KOH_{(aq)} + HCl_{(aq)} \to KCl_{(aq)} + H_{2}O_{(l)} ; \Delta H = -54 kJ/mol\)

The standard heat of neutralization is the amount of heat evolved when 1 mole of hydrogen ion from an acid reacts with 1 mole of hydroxide ion from the base to form one mole of water, under standard conditions.

\(\therefore 2NaOH_{(aq)} + H_{2}SO_{4(aq)} \to Na_{2}SO_{4(aq)} + 2H_{2}O_{(l)} ; \Delta H = -(2 \times 54 kjmol^{-1})\)

\(\therefore \Delta H = -108 kJmol^{-1}\)
