NaOH dissociation is exothermic so ΔH<0
But when I have a reaction
NaOH(s) => Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)
and count ΔrH using standard entalphy change of formation:
ΔfH (NaOH) = -425 kj/mol
ΔfH (OH-(aq)) = -230 kj/mol
ΔfH (Na+(aq)) = +242 kj/mol
Data from Atkins phisical chemistry basics
ΔrH= ΔfH (products) - ΔfH (substrates) = (-230 + 240,12) - (-425) = +435,12 kj/mol
From this calculation it seems that reaction is pretty endothermic and that's surely not true.
Can someone tell me where am I making mistake ?
