Types of Chemical Bonds
The attractive force which has the ability of holding various constituent elements like atoms, ions, molecules, etc. together in different chemical species is termed as a chemical bond. Chemical compounds are dependent on the strength of chemical bonds between its constituents. Stronger the chemical bond, more will be the stability in the chemical compounds. Hence, it can be said that bonding defines the stability of chemical compounds.
Polarizability In Organic Chemistry
Polarizability refers to the ability of an atom/molecule to distort the electron cloud of neighboring species towards itself and the process of distortion of electron cloud is known as polarization.
Coordinate Covalent Bonds
A coordinate covalent bond is also known as a dative bond, which is a type of covalent bond. It is formed between two atoms, where the two electrons required to form the bond come from the same atom resulting in a semi-polar bond. The study of coordinate covalent bond or dative bond is important to know about the special type of bonding that leads to different properties. Since covalent compounds are non-polar whereas coordinate bonds results always in polar compounds due to charge separation.
![A student runs two experiments with a constant-volume "bomb" calorimeter containing 1100. g of water (see sketch at right).
First, a 6.000 g tablet of benzoic acid \((C_6H_5CO_2H)\) is put into the "bomb" and burned completely in an excess of oxygen. (Benzoic acid is known to have a heat of combustion of 26.454 kJ/g.) The temperature of the water is observed to rise from 12.00 °C to 45.56 °C over a time of 7.6 minutes.
Next, 4.490 g of ethylene \((C_2H_4)\) are put into the "bomb" and similarly completely burned in an excess of oxygen. This time the temperature of the water rises from 12.00 °C to 52.29 °C.
Use this information, and any other information you need from the ALEKS Data resource, to answer the questions below about this reaction:
\[
C_2H_4 (g) + 3O_2 (g) \rightarrow 2CO_2 (g) + 2H_2O (g)
\]
Be sure any of your answers that are calculated from measured data are rounded to the correct number of significant digits.
Note for advanced students: it's possible the student did not do these experiments sufficiently carefully, and the values you calculate may not exactly match published values for this reaction.
1. Is this reaction exothermic, endothermic, or neither?
- Exothermic
- Endothermic
- Neither

3. Calculate the reaction enthalpy \(\Delta H_{rxn}\) per mole of \(C_2H_4\).
[ ] kJ/mol
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram shows a "bomb" calorimeter, consisting of the following components:
- **Thermometer:** Measures the temperature change of the water.
- **Stirrer:** Ensures uniform distribution of heat.
- **Water:** Absorbs the heat released during the reaction.
- **Insulation:** Minimizes heat loss to the surroundings.
- **Bomb:** Contains the chemical](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F439811cd-3522-4321-811e-10b69707975d%2F307d9b5b-7d74-4fd2-989f-eecf36fa9708%2F550mf02_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
