Hess's law is important to thermochemistry because it allows us to anticipate enthalpy changes of reactions that are too slow to realistically record, such as rusting or reactions that are too fast. Hess's law, stating that the enthalpy is the same regardless of the pathway, allows us to take known enthalpy values and substituting them in to find your target reaction's enthalpy change.
