Currently, there is a large gap between the 2 segments of a line, causing its index to be pushed to the following line. How can I prevent this?

    Other typography issues: Write phyical units (kJ) upright and separated by a space. H_f(C_2H6)^0 is wrong on several levels: subscript f should be upright, subscript formula should be upright (use ce), superscript is not a 0, but circ. IUPAC recommendation (Green Book) is to write Delta_mathrmfH^circ (ceC2H6). Lastly, are you sure about your calculation? Unit of standard enthalpy is not kJ.

Here, I use mathllap on the last line. But as you can see, there is still one remaining margin issue that you need to consider.



Also, the endalignat does not take an argument.

I also made your kJ units upright, though, as marmot points out, the siunitx package is tailor made for applying units to quantities.

    Regarding H_f(C_2H6)^0 part: a. According to IUPAC, standard state should be denoted with either a superscript circle (^circ) or a superscript Plimsoll symbol (^⦵ + xelatex compiler), not a zero; b. subscript f ("formation") should be upright, e.g. mathrmf; c. It would be nice to fix typesetting for ethane (proper indices and upright font), e.g. with ceC2H6. I also agree with @marmot that using siunitx would make the answer look more professional.

    This does steal a bit of the left margin, if that is not acceptable I think you would need to wrap the final term over two lines.

    Note I moved the therefore back a bit so it's not so cramped (and so the display is a bit narrower and requires less overhang). Also never use \ before a display.

    • Hi, can you elaborate a little bit on what you meant when you said "never use \ before a display"? Was there an extra \ in my document where there shouldn't have been one?

      Here, I use mathllap on the last line. But as you can see, there is still one remaining margin issue that you need to consider.



      Also, the endalignat does not take an argument.

      You could try to break up the remaining long line, but there may be other approaches, too...



      I also made your kJ units upright, though, as marmot points out, the siunitx package is tailor made for applying units to quantities.

      • You need another nonumber in the second iteration; the last equation isn't numbered in the original.

        Regarding H_f(C_2H6)^0 part: a. According to IUPAC, standard state should be denoted with either a superscript circle (^circ) or a superscript Plimsoll symbol (^⦵ + xelatex compiler), not a zero; b. subscript f ("formation") should be upright, e.g. mathrmf; c. It would be nice to fix typesetting for ethane (proper indices and upright font), e.g. with ceC2H6. I also agree with @marmot that using siunitx would make the answer look more professional.

              Note I moved the therefore back a bit so it's not so cramped (and so the display is a bit narrower and requires less overhang). Also never use \ before a display.

              • Hi, can you elaborate a little bit on what you meant when you said "never use \ before a display"? Was there an extra \ in my document where there shouldn't have been one?

              • Hi, can you elaborate a little bit on what you meant when you said "never use \ before a display"? Was there an extra \ in my document where there shouldn't have been one?
