You usually calculate the enthalpy change of combustion from enthalpies of formation.

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy of combustion is ΔH∘c.

It is the heat evolved when 1 mol of a substance burns completely in oxygen at standard conditions. For example,

C2H2(g)+52O2(g)→2CO2(g)+H2O(l)

You calculate ΔH∘c from standard enthalpies of formation:

ΔHoc=∑ΔH∘f(p)−∑ΔH∘f(r)

where p stands for "products" and r stands for "reactants".

For each product, you multiply its ΔH∘f by its coefficient in the balanced equation and add them together.

Do the same for the reactants. Subtract the reactant sum from the product sum.
