Given that bond energies of H H and Cl Cl are 430 kJ mol1 and 240 kJ mol1 respectively and Hf for HCl is 90 kJ mol1, bond enthalpy of HCl is
- A380 kJ mol1
- B425 kJ mol1
- C245 kJ mol1
- D290 kJ mol1
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
H2 + Cl2 HCl
Hf
= –90 kJ mol–1
Hf = [ (B.E)H2 + (B.E)Cl2] - (B.E)HCl
-90 = [ (430)H2 + (240)Cl2] - (B.E)HCl
-90 = [215 + 120] - (B.E)HCl
(B.E)HCl = 425 kJ mol–1
