Question

What is a thermochemical equation? Explain with an example.

✓

Answer

Thermochemical equation : It is defined as a balanced chemical equation along with the corresponding heat of reaction $(\Delta H )$ and physical states and number of moles of all reactants and all products appropriately mentioned.
$\begin{aligned}
& \text { E.g. } C _6 H _{12} O _{6( s )}+6 O _{2( g )}=6 CO _{2( g )}+6 H _2 O _{(l)} \\
& \Delta H =-2808 kJ mol ^{-1}
\end{aligned}$
