Question

The solubility of a solute in water is dependent on temperature as given by:

S=AeΔH/RT, where ΔH= heat of solution.
Solute +H2O(l) Solution; ΔH=±x
For a given solution, the variation of logS with temperature shown graphically. Hence, the solute is:

Solution

The correct option is D CaO
S=AeΔH/RT
logS=ΔHRT+logA
slope =ΔHR>0
ΔH<0
Therefore the r×n
CaO+H2OCa(OH)2;ΔH<0
is the only r×n among the given solute which is exothermic (ΔH<0) in nature.
