A) This is a true statement according to the first law of thermodynamics. B) DE_rxn can only be determined using constant pressure calorimetry or by using the van't Hoff equation, which relates the equilibrium constant to temperature. C) This is the law of conservation of energy. D) ΔH_rx_n can only be determined using constant volume calorimetry or by using the relationship between ΔH and ΔU. Therefore, all of the statements are true.
