Chapter 5.3, Problem 1PPA

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The amount of solar energy required to produce the given mass of ${\text{C}}_{\text{6}}{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

For a constant pressure process, the transfer of heat between a system and the surroundings is always equal to the enthalpy change.

For an endothermic process, the value of $\Delta H$ is positive whereas for anexothermic process, the value of $\Delta H$ is negative.
