    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
