Accepted Answer

$$\Delta H is $$multiplied by the same constant.

Question 9

Which of the following best explains why enthalpy ($$H) is $$considered a state function?

Accepted Answer

Its value depends only on the initial and final states, not on the path taken.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

$$q_{rxn} = -q_{cal}$$

Question 11
