Study the following information and answer the question that follows.

Heat of hydration of x2+ = -1480 kJ/mol
Heat of hydration y- = -364 kJ/mol
Lattice energy of XY2 = +2112 kJ/mol

Determine the heat evolved when 31.8g of XY2(s) is dissolved in water to give an infinitely dilute solution. (RAM of Z = 88, Y = 35.5)

Samuel
XY2(s) X2+(g) + 2y-(g)
DHsoln = DH (latt) + DH hydr.
= +2112 + (-1480 + 2(-364)
= +2112 +-2208
= -96 kJ/mole

Molar mass of XY2 is 88 + 71 = 159(g)
If 159g of XY2 evolve 96 kJ
? 31.8g of XY2 will evolve 31.8 ? 96
159
= 19.2kJ
