[edit] Comment

I changed the solution after I noticed The author forgot to multiply the third equation by 3 Please check me!. (he wrote this needs to be done, but it wasn't done in the calculations, so I also changed the final answer.) again.. check me.

Face!!!

[edit] Proper Grammar for title

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't " Hess's " improper? Should it not be " Hess' "? Minor issue, but it could be fixed.

I think Hess's is still accepted. Not 100% though.

The Oxford Dictionary of Chemistry lists it as Hess's law. Adios:--Sadi Carnot 02:37, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Moved stuff here from Talk:Hess' law

"Hess's" is proper, as "Hess" is only monosyllabic. For monosyllabic words ending with an "s", to show possession, one adds "'s". Should the word be polysyllabic, only the apostrophe would be added --AtomicCactus 19:21, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
