Hi everybody,
I'm working on a project aiming to determine what are the differents ways to measure the free energy (gibbs) and the enthalpy of reactions.
And I have no idea.
If you know some equipments or some procedure to measure it or also where i should look for it, I would be very happy.

Thank you very much in advance.
