thermochemistry help
« on: December 13, 2012, 05:53:25 PM »
an endothermic reaction was found to have an activation energy of 100kj. if this reaction is reversed, the activation energy is only 20kj. What is the value of delta H for the endothermic reaction?

I think the answer is -80kj or 80kj, not so sure :s

Has to be +80 if it is endothermic.
