Section C — Data analysis and open-ended (optional bonus) (up to 10 marks) 11. (10 marks) You are given experimental calorimetry data for dissolution of a salt in water at varying concentrations showing non-linear enthalpy vs. concentration. Propose a model that accounts for ion pairing and hydration shell changes, write the mathematical form for observed ΔH_obs(c), and outline a fitting procedure (parameters, initial guesses, confidence intervals) to extract ion-pairing enthalpy and concentration-dependent hydration contributions.
