Thermochemical properties

Thermochemical properties are characteristics of substances related to heat and energy changes during chemical reactions or physical changes. They include attributes like enthalpy (the heat content of a system), entropy (distribution of energy and disorder), and specific heat capacity (how much heat is needed to change temperature). These properties help us understand how substances absorb, release, or transfer energy, which is essential in fields like chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. They enable prediction of reaction behaviors, energy efficiency, and thermal management in various applications.
