Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which law states that the total enthalpy change for a reaction is the same, regardless of the number of steps taken?
Step 1: Understand what enthalpy change means. It is the heat content change during a chemical reaction.
Step 2: Learn about reactions that can happen in multiple steps. Some reactions can be broken down into smaller parts.
Step 3: Recognize that Hess's Law tells us that no matter how many steps a reaction takes, the total heat change will be the same as if it happened in one step.
