Bond Enthalpy:
The measure of stability of molecule is bond enthalpy. The change in enthalpy is related in breaking a specific bond of 1 mole of gaseous molecule. In solids and liquids bond enthalpies are affected by neighboring molecules. There is possibility to predict the enthalpy of reaction using the average bond enthalpies. Energy is always needed for the breaking of

- Bond Enthalpy When atoms of the hypothetical element X are placed together, they rapidly undergo reaction to form the X2 molecule: X(g)+X(g)X2(g) a Would you predict that this reaction is exothermic or endothermic? Explain. b Is the bond enthalpy of X2 a positive or a negative quantity? Why? c Suppose H for the reaction is 500 kJ/mol. Estimate the bond enthalpy of the X2 molecule. d Another hypothetical molecular compound, Y2(g), has a bond enthalpy of 750 kJ/mol, and the molecular compound XY(g) has a bond enthalpy of 1500 kJ/mol. Using bond enthalpy information, calculate H for the following reaction. X2(g)+Y2(g)2XY(g) e Given the following information, as well as the information previously presented, predict whether or not the hypothetical ionic compound AX is likely to form. In this compound, A forms the A+ cation, and X forms the X anion. Be sure to justify your answer. Reaction: A(g)+12X2(g)AX(s)The first ionization energy of A(g) is 400 kJ/mol. The electron affinity of X(g) is 525 kJ/mol. The lattice energy of AX(s) is 100 kJ/mol. f If you predicted that no ionic compound would form from the reaction in Part e, what minimum amount of AX(s) lattice energy might lead to compound formation?arrow_forwardPlease answer both questions as they are calculated together but just a heads up they are different questions.

- The two compounds nitrogen dioxide and dinitrogen tetraoxide are introduced in Section 3.13. (a) NO2 is an odd-electron compound. Draw the best Lewis diagrams possible for it, recognizing that one atom cannot achieve an octet configuration. Use formal charges to decide whether that should be the (central) nitrogen atom or one of the oxygen atoms. (b) Draw resonance forms for N2O4 that obey the octet rule. The two N atoms are bonded in this molecule.arrow_forwardUse the molar bond enthalpy data in the table to estimate the value of AHin for the equation CC14(g) + 2 F₂ (g) → CF₁ (g) + 2 Cl₂ (g) 2 The bonding in the molecules is shown.
