ΔH°, or standard enthalpy change, is the amount of heat absorbed or released in a reaction at constant pressure and standard conditions (1 atm pressure and 298.15 K).
congrats on reading the definition of ΔH°. now let's actually learn it.
Enthalpy (H): The total heat content of a system at constant pressure.
Exothermic Reaction: A chemical reaction that releases heat to its surroundings (ΔH is negative).
Endothermic Reaction: A chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings (ΔH is positive).
