Chapter 6, Problem 6.4P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The bond which has the higher bond dissociation energy is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The bond dissociation energy is denoted by $\Delta \text{H}°$. It is the energy required to break the bond between two atoms in the chemical reaction. In other words, it describes the strength of a bond in the chemical reaction. The breaking of a bond takes place by the absorption of energy.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The bond which has the higher bond dissociation energy is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The bond dissociation energy is denoted by $\Delta \text{H}°$. It is the energy which is required to break the bond between two atoms in the chemical reaction. In other words, it describes the strength of a bond in the chemical reaction. The process of bond dissociation energy is opposite to that of the bond formation. The breaking of a bond takes place by the absorption of energy.
