What will be the enthalpy of formation of HBr if hypothetical bond energy of H-H, Br-Br and H-Br are 300 kJ/mole, 100kJ/mole and 250kJ/mole respectively? Reaction is as under H, +Br2 = 2HBr-------- ( A) -50 kJ/mole C) -100 kJ/mole B) +50 kJ/mole D) +1000 kJ/mole
Answers
Answer:
- The ΔH for the reaction is - 100 KJ/mol
Explanation:
We are given with following reaction,
The hypothetical bond energy is also given, which is
1. Bond energy of H-H is 300 KJ/mol
2. Bond energy of Br-Br is 100 KJ/mol &
3. Bond energy of H-Br is 250 KJ/mol
From the formula we know that,
ΔH = ∑ bond energy (reactants) - ∑ bond energy (Products)
Substituting,
⇒ ΔH = [(H-H) + (Br-Br)] - [2 × (H-Br)]
⇒ ΔH = [300 + 100] - [2 × 250]
⇒ ΔH = 400 - 500
⇒ ΔH = - 100
⇒ ΔH = -100 KJ/mol
∴ The ΔH for the reaction is - 100 KJ/mol.
Note:-
1) 2 is multiplied to the bond energy of products because 2 is the stochiometric coefficient of HBr.
2) Negative sign of enthalpy of fusion indicate that it is an exothermic reaction.
Given: -
- H2 + Br2 =2HBr(reaction)
And hypothetical bond energy is ,
- Bonding energy of H-H=300kJ/mol
- Bonding energy of Br-Br=100kJ/mol
- Bonding energy H-Br= 250kJ/mol
To prove :-
- Delta H value in the reaction.
Explanation :-
- We know that,
- DeltaH= bond energy (reactants)-bond energy of (Products)
- Now we substitute all the values in Given.
DeltaH= [(H-H)+(Br-Br)-(2×(H-Br)]
DeltaH= [(300+100)-(2×250)]
DeltaH= 400 - 500
DeltaH= -100kJ/mol.
Hence,
- DeltaH value for the reaction is-100kJ/mol^-1.
And this negative value indicates exothermic reaction that we should know first.
