The standard heat of formation of a substance is the change in enthalpy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of that substance from its elements in their standard states at 298 K (25°C) and 1 atm pressure. 

**Example Reaction:**
The reaction to determine the standard heat of formation for carbon monoxide (CO) is:
\[ \frac{1}{2} \text{C} (graphite) + \frac{1}{2} \text{O}_2 (g) \rightarrow \text{CO} (g) \]
