<span>An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released from the reagents into the ambient environment. Perhaps somewhat counterintuitively, condensation is in fact an example of such a reaction. During the process of the gas-to-liquid phase change, water goes from a higher-energy to lower-energy state of matter, and, as such, releases heat into the environment.</span>
Answer: 250 kJ
Explanation: According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.
According to Hess’s law, the chemical equation can be treated as algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The isotope that is more abundant, given the data is isotope Li7
<h3>Assumption</h3>
- Let Li6 be isotope A
- Let Li7 be isotope B
<h3>How to determine whiche isotope is more abundant</h3>
- Molar mass of isotope A (Li6) = 6.02 u
- Molar mass of isotope B (Li7) = 7.02 u
- Atomic mass of lithium = 6.94 u
- Abundance of A = A%
- Abundance of B = (100 - A)%
Atomic mass = [(mass of A × A%) / 100] + [(mass of B × B%) / 100]
6.94 = [(6.02 × A%) / 100] + [(7.02 × (100 - A)) / 100]
6.94 = [6.02A% / 100] + [702 - 7.02A% / 100]
6.94 = [6.02A% + 702 - 7.02A%] / 100
Cross multiply
6.02A% + 702 - 7.02A% = 6.94 × 100
6.02A% + 702 - 7.02A% = 694
Collect like terms
6.02A% - 7.02A% = 694 - 702
-A% = -8
A% = 8%
Thus,
Abundance of B = (100 - A)%
Abundance of B = (100 - 8)%
Abundance of B = 92%
SUMMARY
- Abundance of A (Li6) = 8%
- Abundance of B (Li7) = 92%
From the above, isotope Li7 is more abundant.
