Q54.The heat of solution of anhydrous CuSO4 and CuSO4 ⋅5H2O are −70 kJ mol−1 and +12 kJ mol−1 respectively. The heat of hydration of CuSO4 to CuSO4 ⋅5H2O is −x kJ . The value of x is ______ (nearest integer).

What This Question Tests

Tests the application of Hess's Law to calculate the enthalpy of hydration by relating the heats of solution of anhydrous and hydrated salts.

Concepts Tested

Hess's LawEnthalpy of solutionEnthalpy of hydration

Formulas Used
