In thermodynamics and physical chemistry, thermochemistry is the study of the energy evolved or absorbed in chemical reactions and any physical transformations, such as melting and boiling. Thermochemistry, generally, is concerned with the energy exchange accompanying transformations, such as mixing, phase transitions, chemical reactions, and including calculations of such quantities as the heat capacity, heat of combustion, heat of formation, enthalpy, and free energy.
