If the bond dissociation energies of XY, `X_(2)` and `Y_(2)` (all diatomic molecules) are in the ratio of `1 : 1 : 0.5` and `Delta_(f) H` for the formation of XY is `- 200 kJ " mole"^(-1)`. The bond dissociation energy of `X_(2)` will beA. 100 kJ `mol^(-1)`B. 800 kJ `mol^(-1)`C. 300 kJ `mol^(-1)`D. 400 kJ `mol^(-1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`XYrarrX_((g))+Y_((g)), DeltaH=+"a kJ/mole"^(-1)" .........(i)"`
`X_(2)rarr2X, DeltaH=+" a kJ/mole .....(ii)"`
`Y_(2)rarr2Y, DeltaH=+0.5" a kJ/mole .......(iii)"`
`(1)/(2)xx(ii)+(1)/(2)xx(iii)-(i)`, gives
`(1)/(2)X_(2)+(1)/(2)Y_(2)rarrXY,`
`DeltaH=(+(a)/(2)+(0.5)/(2)a-a)"kJ/mole"`
`+(a)/(2)+(0.5a)/(2)-a=-200`
a = 800
