Hess's Law Hess’s law states that if you can add two or more thermochemical equations to produce a final equation for a reaction, then the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual reactions is the enthalpy change for the final reaction.

H2O2 (aq) → H2 (g) + O2 (g) ΔH = 188 kJ HESS’S LAW KNOWN a. 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(l) ΔH = –572 kJ b. H2(g) + O2(g) → H2O2(l) ΔH = –188 kJ UNKNOWN ΔH = ? kJ Use with Example Problem 5. Problem Use thermochemical Equations a and b below to determine ΔH for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a compound that has many uses ranging from bleaching hair to powering rocket engines. 2H2O2(l) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g) 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(l) ΔH = –572 kJ b. H2(g) + O2(g) → H2O2(l) ΔH = –188 kJ SOLVE FOR THE UNKNOWN H2O2 is a reactant. Reverse Equation b and change the sign of ΔH. H2O2 (aq) → H2 (g) + O2 (g) ΔH = 188 kJ Two moles of H2O2 are needed. Multiply the reversed Equation b by two to obtain Equation c. c. 2 H2O2 (aq) → 2 H2 (g) + 2 O2 (g) Response ANALYZE THE PROBLEM You have been given two chemical equations and their enthalpy changes.

HESS’S LAW EVALUATE THE ANSWER The two equations produce the desired equation. All values are accurate to the ones place, so ΔH is correctly stated. SOLVE FOR THE UNKNOWN (continued) Multipy 188 kJ by two to obtain ΔH for Equation c. ΔH for Equation c = (188 kJ)(2) = 376 kJ Write Equation c and ΔH. c. 2H2O2(aq) → 2H2(g) + 2O2(g), ΔH = 376 kJ Add Equations a and c, canceling any terms common to both sides of the combined equation. Add the enthalpies of Equations a and c. Write Equation a. a. 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l), ΔH = -572 kJ Write Equation c. c. 2H2O2(l) → 2H2(g) + 2O2(g), ΔH = 376 kJ Add Equations a and c. Add the enthalpies. 2H2O2 (l) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g), ΔH = -196 kJ Calculating Enthalpy Change Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
Standard Enthalpy (Heat) of Formation The standard enthalpy (heat) of formation is defined as the change in enthalpy that accompanies the formation of one mole of the compound in its standard state from its elements in their standard states. Elements in their standard states have a The formation of compounds are placed above or below elements in their standard states. Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education Calculating Enthalpy Change
Standard Enthalpy (Heat) of Formation Standard enthalpies of formation can be used to calculate the enthalpies for many reactions under standard conditions by using Hess’s law. The summation equation: Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education Calculating Enthalpy Change
