Questions and Answers

In the formula H = (sum of enthalpies of products) – (sum of enthalpies of reactants), what do 'ai' and 'bi' represent?

  • Temperature and pressure values
  • Molar masses of products and reactants
  • Atomic numbers of reactants and products
  • Stoichiometric coefficients of products and reactants (correct)

Why is it important to specify standard conditions for calculating the standard enthalpy of a reaction?

  • To ensure all participating substances are in their standard states (correct)
  • To simplify the enthalpy change calculations
  • To account for variations in temperature
  • To eliminate the need for molar enthalpy calculations

What is the standard state of a substance at a specified temperature?

  • Dissolved in a solution
  • In a gaseous state
  • Combined with another compound
  • Pure form at 1 bar (correct)
