text: Thermochemical equations can be changed, as mentioned above, by multiplying by any numerical coefficient. All agents must be multiplied, including ΔH. Using the thermochemical equation of variables as above, one gets the following example.
  :A + B → C
  :ΔH= (±) #
  One must assume that A needs to be multiplied by two in order for the thermochemical equation to be used. All the agents in the reaction must then be multiplied by the same coefficient, like so:
  :2A + 2B → 2C
  :2ΔH= 2[(±) #]
  This is again considered to be logical when the First Law of Thermodynamics is considered. Twice as much product is produced, so twice as much heat is removed or given off. The division of coefficients functions in the same way.
