Dissolution of which salt in water results in a decrease in the temperature of the solution?

A) KHSO4
(B) NaOH
(C) AlCl3
(D) NH4NO3

Respuesta :

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. It is ammonium nitrate salt that results to its dissolution with a decrease in the temperature of the solution. The dissolution of such salt is endothermic therefore decreasing the temperature will promote dissolution.
