When KCl dissolves in water (assume endothermic dissolution), then :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Some solids dissolves exothermically as LiCl ( Δ H = –ve) and other dissolved endothermically as KCl
( 
H = +ve). solvent-solvent interaction and solute-solute interaction are endothermic while solvent-solute interaction is exothermic. The sum of the three interaction determines whether 
Hsol is endothermic or exothermic.
