At standard state conditions we can use tabulated heats of formation to calculate the change in enthalpy for any reaction. At temperatures other than standard conditions we use the temperature dependence of the enthalpy to derive an expression for the change in enthalpy of a reaction at any temperature in relation to a reference temperature.

The determining factor making this reaction exothermic is the exceedingly large bond enthalpy of the C=O bond which at 803 kJ mol –1 is almost twice as great as for the other bonds involved in the reaction.

It outlines the use of bomb calorimetry, which is typically employed for combustion reactions. The process involves calculating the change in internal energy using a bomb calorimeter and examples to determine the enthalpy of combustion for substances.

For this, the best description of a reaction is to write an equation for the reaction. A chemical reaction equation gives the reactants and products, and a balanced chemical reaction equation shows the mole relationships of reactants and products. Often, the amount of energy involved in the reaction is given.

It also explains the concept of entropy, which quantifies molecular motion and has a standard value at absolute zero. As temperature increases, entropy rises, and the page details how to calculate entropy changes for reactions like water vaporization and liquid formation. It emphasizes that reactions can still be favorable despite a decrease in entropy when they are exothermic.

It highlights the exothermic nature of methane combustion, releasing 890.4 kJ, compared to the endothermic decomposition of calcium carbonate, which absorbs 177.8 kJ. Understanding thermochemical equations and the heat of reaction is vital for energy transfer and efficiency in heating systems.
