  Thermochemistry - LoveToKnow 1911
That vigorous chemical action is accompanied by a brisk evolution of heat is evident from such familiar examples as the combustion of fuel or the explosion of gunpowder.
Their quantitative experiments were, however, too rough to permit of accurate generalization; and although Lavoisier and Laplace stated the principle that the same amount of heat must be supplied to decompose a compound as would be produced on its formation, the statement was not based on exact experiment, and only received experimental confirmation much later.
The beginnings of modern thermochemistry, though made independently of the doctrine of the conservation of energy, are practically contemporaneous with the recognition of that law, and without it the science could scarcely have reached the degree of development which it rapidly attained.

  Thermochemistry Summary
Thermochemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals with the interrelation of heat with chemical reactions or with a physical change of state.
The primary objective of chemical thermodynamics is the establishment of a criterion for the determination of the feasibility or spontaneity of a given transformation.
Most identities in thermochemistry arise from application of the first law of thermodynamics, the law of conservation of energy, to these state functions.

 Thermochemistry   (Site not responding. Last check: )
When applied to chemistry, thermodynamics can be used to predict the extent to which material changes proceed, primary examples including chemical reactions (see also chemical equilibrium), phase changes such as boiling or melting, and the formation of solutions from separate components.
Thermochemistry describes several major state functions (i.e., functions that only depend on the where the system is, not on a change in the system) in a reaction.

 Gas-Phase Ion Thermochemistry
Because of these differences in the treatment of the thermochemistry of the electron, values for the gas phase enthalpies of formation of ions at temperatures other than absolute zero cited in standard thermochemical compilations [6] differ from those given here or in most mass spectrometric literature, usually by 5/2 RT (6.197 kJ/mol at 298 K).
Therefore, using the normal procedure for treating the thermochemistry of an element, its enthalpy of formation is constrained to be zero at all temperatures, but the integrated heat capacity is not taken to be zero.
For the purposes of studying the thermochemistry of ionic fragmentation processes, a powerful variation of the Threshold Electron Detection approach is used which involves the simultaneous detection of a (single) zero-kinetic energy electron and the corresponding (single) positive ion.

 Accelrys > Science > Case Studies > Thermochemistry of Hydrogen Storage
Researchers from Accelrys have carried out a study of the thermochemistry of hydrogen storage by Mg, a promising material for mobile applications.
Another approach involved reducing the magnesium particle size (to the the micro or nano size range), thus increasing the particle surface area available for reaction.
The results are significant because of the insight into tailoring the thermochemistry as a function of feature size in the nanometer and subnanometer regime and will greatly aid the design of H storage for mobile applications.
