Answer:

ΔH of solution = ΔH₁ + ΔH₂ + ΔH₃

Explanation:

  • Assume that the solution is formed via dissolving solute A in the molecules of Solvent B.

The formation of the solution goes through 3 steps:

1- The dissociation of the solute A particles, solute breaks apart the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together. It has ΔH₁ > 0 beause this is an endothermic process.

2- The dissociation of the solvent B particles, solute breaks apart the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together. It has ΔH₂ > 0 because this is an endothermic process.

3- The particles of the solvent and solute are holding together.  It has ΔH₃ < 0 because this is an exothermic process.

  • The enthalpy of the solution (ΔH of solution) will be equal to the sum of the enthalpy change of the three steps.
  • ΔH of solution = ΔH₁ + ΔH₂ + ΔH₃.
