Question

Oxidising power of chlorine in aqueous solution can be determined by the parameters indicated below:

The energy involved in the conversion of Cl2(g) to Cl-(g)
(using the data, ᐃdissHCl2- = 240 k J mol-1, ᐃegHCl- = - 349 k J mol-1hydHCl- = - 381 k J mol -1) will be

Options

A.+152 kJmol-1 
B.-610 kJmol-1 
C.-850 kJmol-1 
D.+ 120 kJmol-1 

Solution

For the process Cl2(g) → Claq-
ᐃH = ᐃHdiss of Cl2 + ᐃegCl + ᐃhydCl-
= + - 349 - 381
= - 610 kJ mol-1
