Calculate the enthalpy change for the reduction of iron (III) oxide using carbon in a thermite reaction if 12.5 grams of iron (III) oxide reacts with excess carbon, and the resulting iron has a mass of 7.5 grams. Assume all heat evolved is absorbed by the iron and that the reaction occurs at constant pressure.
