Hess's law of constant heat summation is a direct consequence of the fact that enthalpy is
Aa path function
Ban intensive property that is independent of amount
Ca state function
Dalways equal to the heat at constant volume
Answer: C
Enthalpy is a state function, so ΔH depends only on the initial and final states and not on the route. Therefore the enthalpy change of an overall reaction equals the sum of the enthalpy changes of the steps into which it can be divided.
