Hess's law is not applicable in С) Determination of entropy.
- Hess’s law of constant heat summation is an outcome of the first law of thermodynamics.
- According to this law, the enthalpy change during a chemical or physical process is the same irrespective of the number of steps involved to reach the final product.
- The enthalpy of atomization, the lattice enthalpy, ionization enthalpy, and electron gain enthalpy, etc. can be calculated for a reaction by constructing the Born-Haber cycle and applying Hess Law.
- Heat changes in allotropic transitions and phase transitions can also be calculated.
- Hess law does not account for the entropy of a substance.
