Science / Chemistry / Combustion: A chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidizing agent that produces heat (and usually, light). For example, the combustion of methane is represented as CH4(g) + 2 O2(g) = CO2(g) + 2 H2O(ell).

Science / Chemistry / Complete Combustion: A combustion reaction that converts all of the fuel's carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, and nitrogen into carbon dioxide, water, sulfur dioxide, and N2 respectively. MORE
Science / Chemistry / Incomplete Combustion: A combustion reaction or process that does not convert all of the fuel's carbon and hydrogen into carbon dioxide and water, respectively. For example, incomplete combustion of carbon produces carbon m MORE
Science / Chemistry / Enthalpy Of Combustion: The change in enthalpy when one mole of compound is completely combusted. All carbon in the compound is converted to CO2(g), all hydrogen to H2O(ell), all sulfur to SO2(g), and all nitrogen to N2(g). MORE
