Q2. 32g of anhydrous copper(ii)tetraoxosulphate(vi) dissolved in 1dm³ of water generated 13.0kJ of heat. The heat of solution is?
A26.0kJ/mol
B65.0kJ/mol
C130.0kJ/mol
D260.0kJ/mol
Correct Answer: B
Molar mass of anhydrous CuSO₄ = 64 + 32 + 64 = 160 g/mol. Moles dissolved = 32 ÷ 160 = 0.2 mol. Heat generated = 13.0 kJ for 0.2 mol. Heat of solution per mole = 13.0 ÷ 0.2 = 65.0 kJ/mol.
