A thermochemical equation indicates the absorption or release of heat in addition to the reactants and products involved in the chemical reaction. The amount of energy available for conversion into heat is represented by a triangle H does this term stand for?

A. Enthalpy of the reaction

Explanation:

A Thermochemical equation is a balanced stoichiometric chemical equation that indicates the absorption or release of heat in addition to the reactants and products involved in the chemical reaction. The amount of energy available for conversion into heat is represented by ΔH, a this term which stands for the enthalpy change, ΔH.

The Enthalpy of Reaction or Heat of Reaction is the amount of energy in the form of heat transferred during a chemical reaction that occurs at a constant pressure. It is useful for calculating the amount of energy per mole either released or produced in a reaction, therefore is unit is kJ/mol.

In a reaction where energy is absorbed by the reactants during the formation of products, ΔH is positive. On the other hand, in a reaction where energy is released by the reactants during the formation of products, ΔH is negative.

The enthalpy change, ΔH of reactions are determined experimentally under standard conditions of 1 atm and 25 °C (298.15K). Enthalpy can be measured experimentally through the use of a calorimeter. A calorimeter is an isolated system which has a constant pressure and in which heat loss to the surroundings is minimal.

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.
