Chapter 5, Problem 5.113(choose chapter or problem)
Consider the dissolving of NaCI in water, illustrated in Figure 4.3. Assume the system consists of 0.1 mol NaCI and 1 L of water. Considering that the NaCI readily dissolves in the water and that the ions are strongly stabilized by the water molecules, as shown in the figure, is it safe to conclude that the dissolution of NaCI in water results in a lower enthalpy for the system? Explain your response. What experimental evidence would you examine to test this question?
