Experiment 9: Enthalpy of Formation of Magnesium Oxide

An endothermic reaction is one that absorbs energy and is assigned a positive value. The additive property of ΔH°rxn values will be applied in this experiment in order to determine the enthalpy change associated with the burning of magnesium metal in air. For the combustion of magnesium, reaction (1), one possible set of reactions is:
