Introduction to enthalpy of reaction

Define ΔHrxn as heat at constant pressure and relate thermochemical equations to stoichiometry. Interpret sign and magnitude, scale with coefficients, and connect calorimetry results to molar enthalpy. Use particulate and energy-diagram reasoning to explain why some reactions release heat while others absorb it.
