Lit value for standard enthelpy change of formation for aqeuous HCl

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The standard enthalpy change of formation for aqueous Hydrogen Chloride (HCl) is -75140 J/mol when converting from gaseous HCl to aqueous HCl. This value is derived from experimental data and is essential for calculating the standard enthalpy change of formation for solid Ammonium Chloride. The discussion highlights the importance of using literature values accurately and the straightforward conversion between the gaseous and aqueous states by changing the sign of the enthalpy value.

PREREQUISITES

Homework Statement



This is not a problem, per se, because it is part of my Lab. We're calculating the standard enthalpy change of formation for solid Ammonium Chloride. To do this, we're using four separate rxns, and totaling their individual standard enthalpy change of formations. For two of these reactions we're using literature values, but I can not find the literature value for the standard enthalpy change of formation for aqueous Hydrogen Chloride online or in my book -- I can only find the lit value for gaseous Hydrogen Chloride. As far as I know, there is no way to convert one to the other, because these are determined experimentally, so I need to know the lit value for aqueous Hydrogen Chloride. Am I just missing something, or does anyone have a place where I can look this up?

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



Google and my textbook.

I'm doing this too and my lab manual says delta H for HCl (g)---> HCl (aq) = -75140 J/mol.

If you want it in the other direction, merely change the sign.
