What is combustion heat or combustion enthalpy ?

1 Answer

Answer :

The change in enthalpy that occurs when a basic or compound substance is completely burned in oxygen at a certain temperature and 1 atm pressure is called combustion heat or combustion enthalpy. The change in enthalpy that occurs when a mole of a substance is completely burned in oxygen under the proof state is called the combustion heat or proof combustion enthalpy of that substance. It is expressed by H ° C.
