Gibbs free energy change and enthalpy change calculations (Involving standards of formation)
Gibbs free energy change = sum of (stoichiometrically weighted Gibbs free energy of formation of products - reactants) Enthalpy change = sum of (stoichiometrically weighted enthalpy change of formation of products - reactants)
