Enthalpy of Atomisation and bond dissociation
Question

 If the bond energies of H–H, Br-Br and H-Br are 433, 192 and 364 kJ mol–1 respectively, then ΔH0 for the reaction :
H2(g) + Br2(g) → 2HBr(g) is

Moderate
Solution

\begin{array}{l} \Delta H = \sum B{E_{reac\tan ts}} - \sum B{E_{products}}\\ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = B{E_{H - H}} + B{E_{Br - Br}} - 2B{E_{H - Br}}\\ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 433 + 192 - 2(364)\\ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = - 103KJ \end{array}
