9.4 Hess' law and enthalpy cycles Flashcards
1
Q
Hess’s law:
don’t need to memorise
A
states that, if a reaction can take place by two routes, and the starting and finishing conditions are the same, the total enthalpy change is the same for each route

Q
enthalpy changes from ΔfH ⦵
Fe2O3(s) + 3Ca(s) –> 2Fe(s) + 3CaO(s)
A
a b
▽ =

[A] Fe2O3(s) + 3Ca(s) ———–> [B] 2Fe(s) + 3CaO(s)
[C] elements (Fe(s), Ca(s), O2(g))
products - reactants
