Title: What needs to stay constant when measuring enthalpy change? Post by: aliduck on Nov 3, 2017 When measuring the change of enthalpy of a chemical system, which 2 variables must be help constant?
Title: Re: What needs to stay constant when measuring enthalpy change? Post by: wonderfull on Nov 3, 2017 Mass, I think. But is this the formula you're using? \(∆H = m * s * ∆T\)
Use the formula ∆H = m x s x ∆T to solve. Once you have m, the mass of your reactants, s, the specific heat of your product, and ∆T, the temperature change from your reaction, you are prepared to find the enthalpy of reaction. Simply plug your values into the formula ∆H = m x s x ∆T and multiply to solve. |
