The oxidizing power of chlorine in an aqueous solution can be determined by the parameters given below. What is the total energy change in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$ for the conversion of $\frac{1}{2} Cl_{2(g)}$ to $Cl^-_{(aq)}$?
$\frac{1}{2} Cl_{2(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\frac{1}{2} \Delta_{diss} H^\Theta} Cl_{(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta_{eg} H^\Theta} Cl^-_{(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta_{hyd} H^\Theta} Cl^-_{(aq)}$
(Given: $\Delta_{diss} H_{Cl_2}^\Theta = 240 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{eg} H_{Cl}^\Theta = -349 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{hyd} H_{Cl^-}^\Theta = -381 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$)
