Standard (my addt'n & emphasis) Heat of combustion is defined at standard conditions.
Heats of reactions/combustions at other conditions are functions of T,P.

Like in a topic. I just got this question and I am looking for some help.

I found this one http://wikieducator.org/The1stLawofThermodynamicsLesson5 I don't know, is the heat of combustion is the same as entalphy?
Heat of combustion is the difference in enthalpy between the products of the reaction and the reactants at a specified temperature and pressure. It refers to reactants in molar stoichiometric proportions producing products in stoichiometric molar proportions.
