lucy__ FYI the changing enthalpy based on changing temperature thing requires integral calculus (Kirchoff’s Law), so for the sake of your sanity, just look up some values of heat of ionisation for ethanoic acid at different temperatures.
The reason why I had to talk about it is because normally temperature changes don’t incur a sign change in the enthalpy change as in high school you assume heat capacities to be constant regardless of temperature. However, heats of ionisation (enthalpy change for an acid dissociation reaction) are so small that even the smallest temperature change may result in a new deltaH with an opposite sign.
Also, most literature refers to ethanoic acid as “acetic acid”, you’d be surprised how you can’t find anything with the proper IUPAC name but find a million things with its common name.
