Yes it is state function
Enthalpy is the amount of energy in a system and when this changes (when a reaction happens), the energy is either released (exothermic) or absorbed (endothermic) and this energy is usually released or absorbed as heat. Therefore when the enthalpy decreases, heat is released from the system making it exothermic. In contrast, when the enthalpy increases, heat is absorbed making it endothermic.
state function did not depend on the path , it depends on the initial and final point of the system where as path function depends on the path of the reaction.
The enthalpy of 17-4 PH stainless steel, like other materials, is not a fixed value and can vary depending on the temperature and phase of the material. Typically, the specific heat capacity for stainless steels is around 500 J/kg·K, which can be used in conjunction with temperature change to estimate enthalpy changes. For precise enthalpy values, reference to material property databases or specific experimental data is necessary.
A state table defines the behaviour of the of the sequantial function
Enthalpy mathematically is the sum of the internal energy and work done in a process.internal energy is the sum of the kinetic energy,potential energy,vibrational energies etc
Hess's law allows you to calculate the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpy changes of other reactions. This is particularly useful when direct measurement of the desired reaction is not feasible.
The absolute value of enthalpy cannot be measured because enthalpy is a state function, which means its value depends on the initial and final states rather than the absolute value. Only changes in enthalpy can be measured experimentally through processes like calorimetry.
No, the overall enthalpy change of a chemical reaction is independent of the reaction pathway. This is because enthalpy is a state function, meaning it only depends on the initial and final states of the system, not on how the system reached those states.
Enthalpy can be zero for a pure substance at its standard state, where it is defined as the enthalpy of formation. This typically occurs at a reference temperature and pressure specified for the substance.
Gibbs free energy is the thermodynamic state function that measures the maximum electrical work that can be obtained from a fuel cell at constant temperature and pressure. It represents the balance between the system's enthalpy, entropy, and temperature.
A state function is one that depends only on the state of the system, not on how it got there. In quantum mechanics the states of interest are usually energy states. In the formalism of quantum mechanics, the state of a system at a given time is described by a complex wave function, also referred to as state vector in a complex vector space. This abstract mathematical object allows for the calculation of probabilities of outcomes of concrete experiments. For example, it allows one to compute the probability of finding an electron in a particular region around the nucleus at a particular time. Some of the states of interest are electron spin, electron energy level, harmonic oscillation frequencies, and the energy of individual particles, atoms, and molecules. Note that state functions are particularly appropriate for quantum mechanics where changes occur in discrete quanta rather than as a continuous path.
Enthalpy is a state function, and to a first approximation does not depend on temperature. So the change in enthalpy to go from solid to a gas directly (sublimation) at some temperature is equal to the sum of the enthalpies associated with going from a solid to a liquid (fusion) and going from a liquid to a gas (vaporization) at other temperatures.
delta Hr is the enthalphy change of a reaction delta Hf is the enthalpy of formation where one mole of a substance is formed ( generally in its naturally occurring physical state) delta Hc is the enthalpy of combustion where one mole of a substance in its standard state undergoes combustion delta Hn is the enthalpy of neutralization where one mole of H+ reacts with OH- to form one mole of H2O delta Ha is the enthalpy of atomization where a molecule splits to form its neutral atomic components
Oxygen gas (O2) does not have an enthalpy of formation because it is an element in its standard state, which has an enthalpy of formation of zero by definition. Ozone (O3), on the other hand, is a compound and has a defined enthalpy of formation because it is formed from its elements in their standard states.
The enthalpy of a reaction is the sum of the enthalpies of intermediate reaction.
As water is heated in a coal-fired boiler, the enthalpyof the water increases. Note that enthalpy is defined as:H = U + pVwhereH is the enthalpy of the systemU is the internal energy of the systemp is the pressure at the boundary of the system and its environmentV is the volume of the system.Also note that as a state function, enthalpy is expressed as a value relative to some reference state. For water, this is typically liquid water at the triple point, although other conventions are used such as liquid water at the normal freezing point.
