Description
At the end of this activity, students should be able to: – explain the properties of water in terms of the structure of the water molecule – describe the process of dissolving an ionic solid – define enthalpy of hydration and discuss the factors that affect its value – define enthalpy of solution – derive the value of enthalpy of solution from lattice formation enthalpy and enthalpy of hydration – describe how enthalpy of solution can be measured experimentally.
