Question

bond energy is always positive why?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

By definition bond enthalpy is the energy put in (required) to break a bond. Hence, endothermic and always a positive number. The reaction enthalpy can be negative (exothermic) or positive (endothermic) because bonds are broken (in reactants) and bonds are formed (in products).
