Definitions:

Combustion

A chemical reaction where a substance combines with oxygen to release heat and often light.

Bond Dissociation Energies

The energy required to break a bond homolytically, resulting in two radical fragments, important for understanding reaction kinetics.

ΔH°

The standard enthalpy change of a reaction, measured under standard conditions (1 bar, 298.15K), representing the heat absorbed or released.

Bond Dissociation Energy

The energy required to break a particular bond in a molecule to form neutral atoms, usually measured in kilojoules per mole (kJ/mol).
