Solution 1
The Hess's law has been useful to calculate the enthalpy changes for the reactions with their enthalpies being not known experimentally.
Solution 2
- It helps in calculating the enthalpies of formation of those compounds which cannot be determined experimentally.
- It helps in determining the enthalpy of allotropic transformation like C(graphite)→C(diamond)
- It helps in calculating the enthalpy of hydration.
