Why is it valid to assume most chemical reactions are done under constant pressure, allowing the analyst to simply assume the heat of a chemical reaction is the change in enthalpy?

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: c(s)+h2o(g)⇌co(g)+h2(g) predict whether the reaction will shift left, shift right, or remain unchanged upon each of the following disturbances. a) c is added to the reaction mixture. b) h2ois condensed and removed from the reaction mixture c) co is added to the reaction mixture d) h2 is removed from the reaction mixture.
