Question

Enthalpy of formation of  A2B is +1000 KJ. Ratio of bond enthalpies of A2,B2 and A2B  is 1 : 2 : 1.  Bond enthalpy of B2would be

Difficult
Solution

Ratio of bond enthalpies of A2:B2:A2B is 1 : 2 : 1

B.E of A2=x

B.E of B2=2x

B.E of 12B2=x

B.E of A2B=x

A2x+12B2x A2Bx;ΔH=+1000kJ

ΔHB.D.E=HRHP

+1000kJ =2x -x

x=1000kJ

B.D.E of B2 = 2x =+2000kJ
