Letters are used to stand for variables, such as mass, and also as chemical symbols in
chemical equations. The distinction is usually clear from the context, but for even greater
clarity italics are use for variables, and ordinary text for chemical symbols, so H stands
for enthalpy, whereas H stands for hydrogen.
In cases where a letter can stand for two or more variables, the context always makes
it clear which is intended.
