Re: Delta q and delta h
The term q is heat, which is energy transfer due to thermal reactions. On the other hand, enthalpy, delta H, is the total amount of heat released or absorbed at a constant pressure. Therefore, delta h is a state property, but q is not.

Re: Delta q and delta h
Q is the amount of heat transferred to a system. ΔH is the change in enthalpy of a system in a reaction.
Q (heat) is not a state function. ΔH (change in enthalpy) is a state function.

Re: Delta q and delta h
Delta Q refers to the amount of heat transferred to a system (heat input)
Delta H is the state of the system, which describes the change in enthalpy (energy of a system)
Delta H is the state of the system, which describes the change in enthalpy (energy of a system)
