What is the standard enthalpy change of solution?
The enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic compound dissolves in water under standard conditions.
e.g.
NaCl (s )→ Na+(aq) +Cl−(aq)
What must happen in order for an ionic substance to dissolve?
The ionic lattice breaks down into gaseous ions (endothermic).
New bonds must form between the solvent and the ions i.e. the ions become hydrated (exothermic).
What is the standard enthalpy of hydration?
The enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of aqueous ions are formed from their gaseous ions under standard conditions.
Hydration is an…
Exothermic process.
How do you calculate the enthalpy change of solution?
Using Hess’s Law.
The enthalpy of solution= enthalpy of lattice dissociation + enthalpy of hydration.
