Answer: -777.838

Explanation:

Given data,

Lattice energy (energy released to form NaCl )= 778 kJ/mol

Heat of solution = 162 Joules

                                 = 0.162 kJ (converted to kilojoules)

Substitute the values in the given formula,

Enthalpy of hydration = ΔHsolution – ΔHlattice energy

                            = 0.162 – 778

Therefore, Enthalpy of hydration = -777.838
