Lesson 10: Enthalpy changes for other processesStandard enthalpy change for combustion
This video talks about the definition of the standard enthalpy of combustion. It also helps us identify the relationship between the standard enthalpy of combustion and the calorific value for a given fuel. This helps us compare different fuels.
00:00- Introduction
2:14- Is combustion enthalpy always negative?
2:34- Comparing fuels using combustion enthalpy values.
4:13- Calculating enthalpy of formation using combustion enthalpy values.
