This module is concerned with calculations involving enthalpy (energy) changes for reactions such as the example below.
On completion of the module you should be able to use reaction enthalpies (ΔrH - enthalpy change per mol of reaction)
2CH3CH3(g) + 7O2(g) 
ΔrH = –3114 kJ mol–1
6H2O(l) + 4CO2(g)
ΔrH = –3114 kJ mol–1
On completion of the module you should be able to use reaction enthalpies (ΔrH - enthalpy change per mol of reaction)
- to calculate the amount or mass of substance that produces a specified enthalpy change (ΔH)
- to calculate the enthalpy change (ΔH) resulting from reaction of a specified mass or amount of substance
