Question

Consider KOH and the following information. Hsol = –58 kJ/mol Hhydr of = –336 kJ/mol Hhydr of = –532.7 kJ/mol What is the Hlat rounded to the correct number of significant figures? Use Hsol = –Hlat + Hhydr.

A. –927 kJ/mol
B. –926.7 kJ/mol
C. –811 kJ/mol
D. –810.7 kJ/mol

Answer 1

Answer:D

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The total Hhydr is:

Hhydr = – 336 kJ/mol + – 532.7 kJ/mol

Hhydr = - 868.7 kJ/mol

Therefore using the formula Hsol = –Hlat + Hhydr we can get Hlat.

– 58 kJ/mol = – Hlat + - 868.7 kJ/mol

- Hlat = 810.7 kJ/mol

Hlat = - 810.7 kJ/mol

ANSWER:

D. –810.7 kJ/mol
