Consider the reaction mg(oh)2(s)→mgo(s)+h2o(l) with enthalpy of reaction δhrxn∘=37.5kj/mol what is the enthalpy of formation of mgo(s)?

The enthalpy of MgO formation is -601.2kJ/mol in the given reaction.

Enthalpy:

It is the measure of energy constant at constant pressure. It is derived as .It is calculated by the formula,

Given here,

The reaction is

Enthalpy of MgO formation will be,

Hence we can conclude that the enthalpy of MgO formation is -601.2kJ/mol.
