In a constant-pressure calorimetry experiment, Jiwon and Jisun dissolved 10.0 g of CaCl2 (MM = 110.98 g mol-1) in 250.0 g of water initially at 20.00°C. As the solid dissolves in water, the temperature rises to 26.73°C. Calculate the enthalpy of dissolution (ΔHdissolution) of CaCl2 in kJ mol-1. Assume that the calorimeter absorbed a negligible amount of heat.
