Using the sata (all values are in kilocalorie per mole at `25^(@)C`) given below, calculate the bond enegry of `C-C` and `C-H` bonds. `DeltaH^(Theta)` combustion of ethane `=- 372.0` `DeltaH^(Theta)` combustion of propane `=- 530.0` `DeltaH^(Theta)` for `C`( garphite) `rarr C(g) =+ 172.0` Bond enegry of `H-H` bond `=+ 104.0` `Delta_(f)H^(Theta) of H_(2)O(l) =- 68.0` `Delta_(f)H^(Theta) of CO_(2)(g) =- 94.0` |

Answer» `C_(2)H_(6)(g) +(7)/(2)O_(2) rarr 2CO_(2)(g) +3H_(2)O(l), DeltaH^(Theta) =- 372.0` `Delta_(f)H_((C_(2)H_(6)))^(Theta) = 2 xx (-94.0) +3 xx (-68.0) + 372.0` `=- 20 kcal` `C_(3)H_(8)(g) +5O_(2) rarr 3CO_(2)(g) +4H_(2)O (l), DeltaH^(Theta) =- 530.0` `Delta_(f)H_((C_(3)H_(8)))^(Theta)=2xx(-94.0) +4xx (-68.0) +530.0` `=- 24 kcal` `2C(s) +3H_(2)(g) rarr C_(2)H_(6)(g), DeltaH^(Theta) =- 20.0` `2C(g)rarr 2C(s),DeltaH^(Theta) =- 344.0` `4H(g) rarr 3H_(2)(g), DeltaH^(Theta) =- 312.0` `"Adding"ulbar(2C(g)+6H(g)rarrC_(2)H_(6)(g),DeltaH=-676kcal)` So, the enthalpy of formation of six `(C-H)` and one `(C-C)` bonds is `-676.0 kcal`. `3C(s) +4H_(2)(g) rarr C_(3)H_(8)(g), DeltaH^(Theta)=- 24.0` `3C(g) rarr 3C(s),DeltaH^(Theta) =- 516.0` `8H (g)rarr 4H_(2)(g),DeltaH^(Theta) =- 416.0` `"Adding"ulbar(3C(g)+8H(g)rarrC_(3)H_(8)(g),DeltaH=-956.0kcal)` So, the enthalpy of formation of eight `(C-H)` and two `(C-C)` bond is `-965kcal`. Let the bond enegry of `C-C` be `x` and of `C-H` be `y` kcal. In ethane, `x+6y = 676` In propane, `2 x +8y = 956` On solving, `x = 82` and`y =99` Thus, bond energy of `C-C =82` kcal and bond enegry of `C-H = 99 kcal`. |
