 | | The term enthalpy is composed of the prefix en-, meaning to "put into", plus the Greek word -thalpein, meaning "to heat", although the original definition is thought to have stemmed from the word, "enthalpos" (á¼Î½Î¸Î¬Î»ÏοÏ). |
 | | It is often calculated as a differential sum, describing the changes within exo- and endothermic reactions, which minimize at equilibrium. |
 | | For systems at constant pressure, the change in enthalpy is the heat received by the system plus the non-mechanical work that has been done. |
