Question

The free energy change when 1 mole of NaCl is dissolved in water at 25oC is x kJ mol1 Lattice energy of NaCl = 777.8 kJ mol1; S for dissolution =0.043 kJ mol1 and hydration energy of NaCl=774.1 kJ mol1. Value of x (rounded off to nearest integer) is

Open in App
Solution

Hdissolution=Lattice energy+Hydration energy
=777.8774.1=3.7 kJ mol1

Now G=HTS
=3.7298 ×0.043=3.712.814
G=9.114 kJ mol1
Nearest integer = 9
