Statement I : Enthalpy changes are positive when

N{a_2}S{O_4}.10\,{H_2}O,\,CuS{O_4}.5{H_2}O

and salts like

NaCl

,

KCl

etc., which do not form hydrates are dissolved in water. But enthalpy changes are negative when anhydrous salts capable of forming hydrates are dissolved in water
Statement II : The difference in the behaviour is due to large differences in the molecular weight of hydrated and anhydrous salts. The substances with larger molecular weights usually show positive enthalpy changes on dissolution.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Only Statement I is correct

Option A (Only Statement I is correct) is correct because Statement I accurately describes enthalpy changes during dissolution, while Statement II incorrectly attributes these changes solely to molecular weight differences.
