Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) has a lattice energy of -887 kJ/mol and a heat of hydration of -932 kJ/mol.
How much solution could be heated to boiling by the heat evolved by the dissolution of 24.5 g of NaOH? (For the solution, assume a heat capacity of 4.0 J/g C, an initial temperature of 25.0 C, a boiling point of 100.0 C, and a density of 1.05 g/mL.)
