Explain how to find the standard enthalpy of formation for one chemical in a
Expert Solution
Step 1
As per the Hess's law of constant heat summation, the enthalpy change for a process is the same whatever way the reaction is carried out.
Step 2
Let's consider a reaction:
The overall enthalpy of this reaction:
--------------(Z)
Let's say the the standard enthalpy of this reaction is unknown. Also, the standard enthalpy of formation of B is not known.
