Answer:


\large \boxed{\text{37.0 kJ$\cdot$mol$^(-1)$}}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two heat transfers involved in this problem.

Heat of solution of AlCl₃ + heat lost by water = 0

q₁ + q₂ = 0

nΔH + mCΔT = 0

Let's calculate the heats separately.


\text{Moles of NH$_(4)$Cl}= \text{3.00 g NH$_(4)$Cl} * \frac{\text{1 mol NH$_(4)$Cl}}{\text{133.34 g NH$_(4)$Cl}} = \text{0.022 50 mol NH$_(4)$Cl}\\\\q_(1) = \text{0.022 50 mol} * \Delta H

m = 100.00 g

C = 4.18 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹

ΔT = -1.99 °C

q₂ = mCΔT = 100.00 g × 4.184 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × (-1.99 °C) = -832.6 J


q_(1) + q_(2) = \text{0.022 50 mol} * \Delta H - \text{832.6 J} = 0\\\text{0.022 50 mol} * \Delta H = \text{832.6 J}\\\Delta H = \frac{\text{832.6 J}}{\text{0.022 50 mol}} = \text{37 010 J/mol} =\textbf{37.0 kJ}\cdot\textbf{mol}^{\mathbf{-1}}\\\\\text{The heat of solution of NH$_(4)$Cl is $\large \boxed{\textbf{37.0 kJ$\cdot$mol$^{\mathbf{-1}}$}}$}
