NEETChemistryThermodynamics (C)
Which of the following statements about enthalpy change (∆H) for a chemical reaction is correct?
Options
- A∆H is the same for all reactions.
- B∆H depends on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
- C∆H is always positive.
- D∆H is unrelated to the reactants and products.
Correct answer
B. ∆H depends on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
Step-by-step solution
∆H depends on the specific reaction and the stoichiometry of reactants and products involved. It can vary for different reactions.
