Enthalpy Of Solution

Question 1

What increases the enthalpy of hydration?

Answer 1

The bigger the charge density, the greater the attraction is between water and the ions. Which results to a higher enthalpy of hydration

Question 2

What is the equation used for enthalpy of solution?

Answer 2

Lattice enthalpy of formation (endothermic) + enthalpy of hydration (exothermic)
