Q

When a solid ionic lattice is dissolved in a solution what happens to the entropy?

A

Entropy increases due to the ions being more disordered

Q

Define enthalpy change of hydration

A

The enthalpy change when dissolving 1 mole of gaseous ions in water

17
Q

What factors affect size of lattice enthalpy?

A
  • Ionic size (as ionic size increases lattice enthalpy becomes less negative)
  • Ionic charge (as ionic charge increases lattice energy becomes more negative)
18
Q

Which ions have more negative lattice enthalpy?

A

Smaller ions

19
Q

Describe hydration

A
  • When an ionic lattice is broken the ions become part of the solution
  • Positive ions are attracted to the slightly negative oxygen and negative ions are attracted to the slightly positive hydrogen
