Solution


H2(g)+12O2(g)H2O(l);ΔH=285.7kJ/mol.....(1)
Neutralisation of strong acid and base-
H+(aq.)+OH(aq.)H2O(l);ΔH=57.6kJ/mol
H2O(l)H+(aq.)+OH(aq.);ΔH=57.6kJ/mol.....(2)
Adding eqn(1)&(2), we have
H2(g)+12O2(g)+H2O(l)H2O(l)+H+(aq.)+OH(aq.);ΔH=[(285.7)+57.6]kJ/mol
H2(g)+12O2(g)H+(aq.)+OH(aq.);ΔH=228.1kJ/mol
Hence the enthalpy of formation of OH ion is 228.1kJ/mol.
