It allows scientists to predict the temperature change during a reaction. It allows scientists to determine how much of a reactant is necessary to produce a certain amount of energy. It allows scientists to predict whether a reaction might produce dangerous amounts of heat.

The Enthalpy of Reaction is the adjustment in the enthalpy of a compound response that happens at a consistent weight. It is a thermodynamic unit of estimation helpful for figuring the measure of vitality per mole either discharged or created in a response.
