Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
A
Given that
`MgSO_(4)(s)+nH_(2)OrarrMgSO_(4)(nH_(2)O),`
`Delta_(r )H_(1)=-91.2 " kJ"//"mol ....(i)"`
`MgSO_(4).7H_(2)O(s)+(n-7)H_(2)OrarrMgSO_(4)(nH_(2)O)`
`Delta_(r )H_(2)=13.8 " kJ"//"mol ....(ii)"`
Equation (i) - (ii)
or `DeltaH_("hyd")=Delta_(r )H_(1)-Delta_(r)H_(2)`
`=-91.2 " kJ"//"mol"-13.8 " kJ"//"mol"`
`=-105" kJ"//"mol"`
`MgSO_(4)(s)+nH_(2)OrarrMgSO_(4)(nH_(2)O),`
`Delta_(r )H_(1)=-91.2 " kJ"//"mol ....(i)"`
`MgSO_(4).7H_(2)O(s)+(n-7)H_(2)OrarrMgSO_(4)(nH_(2)O)`
`Delta_(r )H_(2)=13.8 " kJ"//"mol ....(ii)"`
Equation (i) - (ii)
or `DeltaH_("hyd")=Delta_(r )H_(1)-Delta_(r)H_(2)`
`=-91.2 " kJ"//"mol"-13.8 " kJ"//"mol"`
`=-105" kJ"//"mol"`
