Question

[VISUAL]

The process of dissolution of NaCl(s) in H2O(l) is represented in the diagram above. Which of the following summarizes the signs of ΔH° and ΔS° for each part of the dissolution process?

A.

Breaking solvent-solvent interactions: ΔH° = +, ΔS° = +; Breaking solute-solute interactions: ΔH° = +, ΔS° = +; Forming solute-solvent interactions: ΔH° = -, ΔS° = -
