Heat of reaction is not influenced by__________________?

Correct answer: D. The route/method through which final products are obtained

  • A. None of these
  • B. The physical state (e.g., solid, liquid or gaseous) of reactants and products
  • C. Whether the reaction is carried out at constant temperature or constant pressure
  • D. The route/method through which final products are obtained

Explanation

Enthalpy is a state function, so the heat of reaction is independent of the route or sequence used to obtain the products, which is Hess's law. It can depend on the physical states and specified thermodynamic conditions.
