Answer to Question #105945 in General Chemistry for Adriana

Question

Find the heat of reaction for: PbCl2 + Cl2 → PbCl4

Answer 1

When estimating the enthalpy of a reaction(heat ), given the standard enthalpies of formation, we can apply Hess' Law:

$ΔH∘=Σ[ΔH_{∘f}(products)]−Σ[ΔH_{∘f}(reactants)]$

Since we are not provided with any data so we are unable to solve the question

But putting the data in the above equation would surely give us the correct result
