Standard Heat of Formation: The enthalpy change for the formation of 1 mol of a substance in its standard state from its constituent elements in their standard states. True/ false?

The given statement about standard heat of formation is true.

Explanation:

Yes, it is true that standard heat of formation is same as standard enthalpy of formation. As enthalpy is termed for change in the heat energy occurred in the process of completion of any chemical reaction, the standard enthalpy or heat of formation is termed as the heat energy required to form 1 mole of any substance in its standard state from its original, parent or constituent elements in their standard state. Basically, it defines the amount of energy required by the system or compound for its formation from different elements under different synthesis conditions but the nature of the parent samples and temperature and pressure should be kept standard.

So the given statement is true.

a:

by the combination of an unlimited number of elements
