The sparingly soluble salt \(\ce{MX}\) (M^{2+} and X^{2-}) has a solubility of \(1.2\times10^{-4}\) mol L\(^{-1}\) at 25 °C and \(3.5\times10^{-4}\) mol L\(^{-1}\) at 35 °C. Assuming the enthalpy of solution is constant over this temperature range, (a) calculate \(\Delta H_{\text{sol}}\) in kJ mol\(^{-1}\); (b) estimate the solubility at 45 °C.

Answer Options

A. ΔHₛₒₗ ≈ 90 kJ mol⁻¹; solubility at 45 °C ≈ 5.0×10⁻⁴ mol L⁻¹
B. ΔHₛₒₗ ≈ 200 kJ mol⁻¹; solubility at 45 °C ≈ 1.2×10⁻³ mol L⁻¹
Correct Answer C. ΔHₛₒₗ ≈ 165 kJ mol⁻¹; solubility at 45 °C ≈ 9.6×10⁻⁴ mol L⁻¹
D. ΔHₛₒₗ ≈ 120 kJ mol⁻¹; solubility at 45 °C ≈ 7.2×10⁻⁴ mol L⁻¹
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
ΔHₛₒₗ ≈ 165 kJ mol⁻¹; solubility at 45 °C ≈ 9.6×10⁻⁴ mol L⁻¹
