Question

The reaction that was on the screen when you started and its derivative demonstrate that the reaction enthalpy, ΔH, changes sign when a process is reversed.

Consider the reaction

H2O(l)→H2O(g), ΔH =44.0kJ

What will ΔH be for the reaction if it is reversed?

N2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2NO (g) AH = 180.5 kJ
AH is an Extensive Property
(g)
NO (g) AH = 90.25 kJ
AH Changes sign when a
process is reversed
2NO(g) → N2(g) + O2 (g) AH
- 180.5 kJ
글N2 (g) + 글02 (g) →
NQ (g) AH = 90.25 kJ
Hess's Law of Constant
Heat Summation.
NO (g) + 02 (g) → NO2 (g) AH = - 57.05 kJ
N2 (g) + O2 (g) → NO2 (g) AH = 33.20 kJ
When two reactions are added together,
the individual reaction enthalpies are
summed. Notice that equal quantities of
the same species, on both sides of the
reaction arrow, cancel.
