Question
The solubility of NaCl(s) in water at 298 K is about 6 moles per litre. Suppose you add 1 mole of NaCl(s) to a litre of water. For the reaction: NaCl(s) + H2O → NaCl(aq)
Options
A.ΔG > 0, ΔS > 0
B.ΔG < 0, ΔS > 0
C.ΔG > 0, ΔS < 0
D.ΔG < 0, ΔS < 0
Solution
Amount is less than saturation and hence, NaCl will dissolve spontaneously.
