The lattice energy of solid NaCl is 180 kcal/mol. The dissolution of the solid in water in the form of ions is endothermic to the extent of 1 kcal/mol. If the hydration energies of Na+and Cl-are in the ratio 6 : 5, what is the enthalpy of hydration of Na+ion ?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Δ H solu = Δ H hydration + Δ H Lattice

1 = Δ H hydration + 1 8 0

Δ H hydration = - 1 7 9  kcal  m - 1

Δ H hyd Na + + Δ H hyd cl - = -1 7 9  kcal  m - 1

Δ H hyd Na + = - 1 7 9 × 6 1 1

= - 9 7 · 6 4  kcal  m - 1
