`30.0 kJ` of heat is required to melt `1mol` of sodium chloride. The entropy change during melting is `15.05mol^(-1)K^(-1)`. Calculate the melting point of sodium chloride.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Delta_("melting")S =(Delta_("melting")H)/(T)`
or `T = (Delta_("melting")H)/(Delta_("melting")S) = (30 xx 10^(3))/(15) = 2 kJ`
