By convention, the (higher) heat of combustion is defined to be the heat released for the complete combustion of a compound in its standard state to form stable products in their standard states: hydrogen is converted to water (in its liquid state), carbon is converted to carbon dioxide gas, and nitrogen is converted to nitrogen gas.
Standard enthalpy of combustion is the enthalpy change when one mole of an organic compound reacts with molecular oxygen (O 2) to form carbon dioxide and liquid water. 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).
For instance, carbon and hydrogen will not directly react to form methane (CH 4), so that the standard enthalpy of formation cannot be measured directly. However the standard enthalpy of combustion is readily measurable using bomb calorimetry. The standard enthalpy of formation is then determined using Hess's law. The combustion of methane:
There are four types of enthalpy changes resulting from a phase transition. To wit: Enthalpy of transformation. This applies to the transformations from one solid phase to another, such as the transformation from α-Fe (bcc ferrite) to -Fe (fcc austenite). The transformation is designated ΔH tr. Enthalpy of fusion or melting.
