You could run the reaction, take solid iron gaseous oxygen, form iron oxide, measure the heat of formation of it, tabulate it.

你可以进行一个反应,用固态铁和氧气生成氧化铁，测量它的生成热，列成表格。

So iron left to own devices in the atmosphere in the presence of a little bit of water, with the water form iron oxide.

铁在大气中，在存在,少量水的条件下，大气会开始与水结合产生氧化铁。

So I need to find out the heats of formation of the iron oxide and the water.

所以我需要找出氧化铁和,水的生成热，如果我这么做了。

And if I do that then I can find out the change in enthalpy of this reaction. It's just going to be the heat of formation of these three moles of water, minus the heat of formation of the iron oxide. OK.

我就能得到这个,反应的焓的变化,它就是三摩尔水,的生成热，减去氧化铁的,生成热，好。
