HCl is a strong acid, and CH₃COOH is a weak acid. During a reaction with a strong base, the weak acid is forced to completely dissociate (there is no weak acid molecule left intact at the equivalence point). Since it completely dissociates, the accepted value for the ∆Hrxn for CH₃COOH is about 1.9 kJ/mol less than for the HCl. Explain why this is so.

During a reaction with a strong base, the weak acid is forced to completely dissociate (there is no weak acid molecule left intact at the equivalence point). Since it completely dissociates, you might think the ∆H_rxn would be the same as the strong acid HCl. However, the accepted value for the ∆Hrxn for CH₃COOH is about 1.9 kJ/mol less than for the HCl. Why this is so?
