Oxidising power of chlorine in aqueous solution can be determined by the parameters indicated below:
$\frac{1}{2} Cl_{2(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\frac{1}{2} \Delta_{diss} H^{\Theta}} Cl_{(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta_{eg} H^{\Theta}} Cl^{-}_{(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta_{Hyd} H^{\Theta}} Cl^{-}_{(aq)}$
(using the data,$\Delta_{diss} H_{Cl_2}^{\Theta} = 240 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{eg} H_{Cl}^{\Theta} = -349 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{Hyd} H_{Cl}^{\Theta} = -381 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$) will be ............. $kJ \ mol^{-1}$.
