Answer: -100 kJ
Explanation:
Heat of reaction or enthalpy of the reaction is the energy released or absorbed during the course of the reaction.
Heat of reaction is represented by the symbol [tex]\Delta H[/tex].
[tex]\Delta H=H_{products}-H_{reactants}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta H[/tex] = enthalpy of reaction = ?
[tex]H_{products}[/tex] = enthalpy of products = 0 kJ
[tex]H_{reactants}[/tex] = enthalpy of reactants = 100 kJ
[tex]\Delta H=0kJ-100kJ[/tex]
[tex]\Delta H=-100kJ[/tex]
Thus the ΔH for the reaction is -100kJ
