Question
What is the change in cnthalpy $( \Delta H )$ for a chemical reaction? How is$\Delta H$ different from $\Delta E ?$
Step 1
This can be mathematically represented as: \[ \Delta H = H_{final} - H_{initial} \] where $H_{final}$ is the enthalpy of the products and $H_{initial}$ is the enthalpy of the reactants. Show more…
