For many substances, the formation reaction may be considered as the sum of a number of simpler reactions, either real or fictitious. The enthalpy of reaction can then be analyzed by applying Hess' law, which states that the sum of the enthalpy changes for a number of individual reaction steps equals the enthalpy change of the overall reaction.
In some texts, the heats of phase transitions are called latent heats (for example, latent heat of fusion). Molar enthalpy of zinc above 298.15 K and at 1 atm pressure, showing discontinuities at the melting and boiling points. The ΔH°m of zinc is 7323 J/mol, and the ΔH°v is 115 330 J/mol.

For example, the standard enthalpy of combustion of ethane gas refers to the reaction C 2 H 6 (g) + (7/2) O 2 (g) → 2 CO 2 (g) + 3 H 2 O (l). Standard enthalpy of formation is the enthalpy change when one mole of any compound is formed from its constituent elements in their standard states.

If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol −1 ⋅K −1 = 3 R per mole of atoms (see the last column of this table). For example, Paraffin has very large molecules and thus a high heat capacity per mole ...
This Table, reports the three main Miedema parameters for the elements of the Periodic table for whom the model is applicable. These are original parameters [13] which are after page 24 of the book after F.R. De Boer, R. Boom, W.C.M. Mattens, A.R. Miedema and A.K. Niessen Cohesion in Metals. Transition Metal Alloys (1988), [14]
(The heat change at constant pressure is called the enthalpy change; in this case the widely tabulated enthalpies of formation are used.) A related term is the heat of combustion, which is the chemical energy released due to a combustion reaction and of interest in the study of fuels.
