The enthalpy of the product is greater than the enthalpy of the reactant. C. The enthalpy of the reactant is greater than the enthalpy of the product. D. The enthalpy of the product and reactant are equal.

2CaSO4·½H2O + 3H2O --> 2CaSO4·2H2O **sorry

It,s C. \[\Delta H=Hproduct - Hreactant\]when heat release sign of \[\Delta H\] is negative and this situation is possible when enthalpy of reactant is greater than enthalpy of product. Am I right?
