Enthalpy is a state function
Explanation:
The Hess's law allows us to determine the enthalpy change of a reaction because enthalpy is a state function. It does not depend on the individual path take in going from reactants to products in the reaction.
- Enthalpy changes are the heat changes accompanying physical and chemical changes.
- It is the difference between the heat content of product in the final state and the reactants.
- Enthalpy changes for some reactions are not easily measurable experimentally.
- To calculate such heat changes, we apply the Hess's law of heat summation.
- The law states that "the heat change of a reaction is the same whether it occurs in a step or several steps".
- The Hess's law is simply based on the first law of thermodynamics by which we know that energy is conserved in every system.

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

Explanation :
Rules for the balanced chemical equation in basic solution are :
- First we have to write into the two half-reactions.
- Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.
- Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.
- If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the more number of oxygen are present.
- If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydroxide ion
at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present. - Now balance the charge.
The half reactions in the basic solution are :
Reduction :
......(1)
Oxidation :
.......(2)
Now multiply the equation (1) by 2 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.
The balanced chemical equation in a basic solution will be,
