So what do you get from reading that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That the entropy and enthalpy will stay the same and

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is a basic summary of what i get reading that .. In an exothermic reaction, heat is given off. This means that the final enthalpy should be less than the initial enthalpy. And since H = Hf - Hi (Hf < Hi), H (enthalpy) should be negative.

Are you good here ?
