The enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid by a strong base is -57.32 kJ/mol. The enthalpy of formation of water is -285.84 kJ/mol. The enthalpy of formation of aqueous hydroxyl ion is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(l); ΔH = -57.32 kJ. With Δf H(H+, aq) = 0:

Δf H(OH-) = Δf H(H2O) - ΔHneut

Δf H(OH-) = -285.84 - (-57.32) = -228.52 kJ/mol

This corresponds to option (c).
