Question

When KCl dissolves in water (assume endothermic dissolution) :

Options

A.ᐃH = + ve, ᐃS = + ve, ′G = + ve
B.ᐃH = + ve, ᐃS = - ve, ᐃG = - ve
C.ᐃH = + ve, ᐃS = + ve, ᐃG = - ve
D.ᐃH = - ve, ᐃS = - ve, ᐃG = + ve

Solution

Some solids dissolves exothermically as LiCl (ᐃH = - ve) and other dissolved endothermically as KCl (ᐃH = +ve). solvent-solvent interaction and solute-solute interaction are endothermic while solvent-solute interaction is exothermic. The sum of the three interaction determines whether ᐃHsol is endothermic or exothermic.
