Asked by Ben

Is there a simple formula for the Enthalpy of solution and/or hydration?
Answered by GK
There is a <b>procedure</b>, not a <b>formula</b> which depends on what information is given. Tell us more.

Well to be honest I wasn't there for the teaching of this in my class due to University interviews.

I was just wondering how you actually work through them as other websites i have been on have all been in too much (universty standard) detail.

Thank you for the fast response!

Am I Correct in assuming this?

dH of solution = -dH of lattice enthalpy + dH of hydration

E.g:
ÄHsolution NaCl = -ÄHLE NaCl(s) + ÄHhyd Na+(g) + ÄHhyd Cl-(g)

Units as kJmol-1
