Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

Calculate the energy required to completely separate 0.5 moles of solid NaCl into its gaseous ions given that the lattice enthalpy of NaCl is 788 kJ/mol.

A

394 kJ

B

788 kJ

C

1576 kJ

D

197 kJ

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The lattice enthalpy of NaCl is 788 kJ/mol, which means 788 kJ is required for 1 mole. For 0.5 moles, the energy required is 0.5 * 788 = 394 kJ.
