You have to show the uncatalyzed reaction to answer this question. So not enough info. is given.
Yes, it is possible for the change in enthalpy (H) to have a negative value in a chemical reaction, indicating that the reaction releases heat energy.
The enthalpy of a reaction is a measure of the heat energy exchanged with the surroundings at constant pressure. A negative enthalpy change indicates an exothermic reaction, where heat is released. A positive enthalpy change indicates an endothermic reaction, where heat is absorbed.
If you need to reverse a reaction and multiply it by 2 in Hess's law, the enthalpy change of the reaction will also change sign and double in magnitude. This is because reversing a reaction changes the sign of the enthalpy change. Multiplying the reaction by a factor also multiplies the enthalpy change by that factor. Therefore, the final value for the enthalpy of the reaction will be twice the original magnitude but with the opposite sign.
Its value does not depend on which reactions are added.
The final value for the enthalpy of the reverse reaction used in a Hess's law problem would simply be the negative of the original value of the enthalpy of the forward reaction. This is because reversing a reaction changes the sign of the enthalpy change.
To reverse a reaction in a Hess's Law problem, you must change the sign of the enthalpy change associated with that reaction. For example, if the original reaction has an enthalpy change of ΔH, the enthalpy change for the reversed reaction would be -ΔH. This means you would use the negative value of the original enthalpy change as the final value for the enthalpy of reaction for the intermediate.
The enthalpy value of an intermediate reaction refers to the change in enthalpy during the formation or transformation of an intermediate species in a reaction pathway. It is not typically a standalone value but is part of the overall enthalpy change of the entire reaction. The enthalpy of intermediates can be influenced by the stability of the intermediate and the surrounding reaction conditions. Generally, intermediates have higher enthalpy values compared to the reactants and products due to being less stable.

When enthalpy in a system decreases, the reaction is considered to be exothermic. In an exothermic reaction, heat is released to the surroundings, leading to a decrease in the internal energy of the system. This change in enthalpy is typically indicated by a negative value for the change in enthalpy (ΔH).
The final value for the enthalpy of the reverse reaction used in a Hess's law problem would simply be the negative of the original value of the enthalpy of the forward reaction. This is because reversing a reaction changes the sign of the enthalpy change.
If you need to multiply the reaction by 2, you must also multiply the enthalpy change by 2. The final value for the enthalpy of the reaction used for the intermediate reaction would be 2 times the original enthalpy value.
To reverse a reaction in a Hess's law problem, you need to change the sign of the enthalpy change associated with that reaction. If the original reaction has an enthalpy of reaction ( \Delta H ), the final value for the enthalpy of the reversed reaction would be ( -\Delta H ). This allows you to correctly account for the energy change in the overall pathway when combining reactions.
Heat of reaction and enthalpy of reaction are the same thing. Enthalpy, or the heat transfer, cannot be measured, however we can measure the CHANGE of enthalpy which is shown by a value of ∆H. This measured in kilojoules per mole of reactant. (KJ/mol)This value may be positive or negative. For endothermic reactions (which absorb heat), the ∆H value is always positive. For exothermic, where heat is released, the value is negative.
When you multiply a reaction by a factor, you also multiply the enthalpy change by the same factor. Therefore, if you multiply the reaction by 2, the final value for the enthalpy of reaction for the intermediate reaction will also be multiplied by 2.
