  1. Examining the slopes of the given curves:

    • NH4Cl (ammonium chloride) has a positive slope, indicating negative ΔHsoln
    • Ce2(SO4)3 (cerium sulfate) has a negative slope, indicating positive ΔHsoln
    • KClO3 (potassium chlorate) has a positive slope, indicating negative ΔHsoln
    • NaNO3 (sodium nitrate) has a positive slope, indicating negative ΔHsoln

    Therefore, the substance with a negative enthalpy of solution (ΔHsoln) is ammonium chloride (NH4Cl).
