Which of the following is a statement of Hess's Law? Answer a. If a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, the ΔH for the reaction will equal the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps. b. The ΔH for a process in the forward direction is equal in magnitude and opposite in sign to the ΔH for the process in the reverse direction. c. The ΔH of a reaction depends on the physical states of the reactants and products. d. The ΔH for a process in the forward direction is equal to the ΔH for the process in the reverse direction. e. If a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, the ?H for the reaction will equal the produt of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps.
