Question
Bond energies can be obtained by using the following relation:
ΔH(reaction)=∑ Bond energy of bonds, broken in the reactants −∑ Bond energy of bonds, formed in the products
Bond energy depends on three factors:
a. greater is the bond length, lesser is the bond energy
b. bond energy increases with the bond multiplicity
c. bond energy increases with the electronegativity difference between the bonding atoms.The heat of formation of NO from its elements is +90kJmol−1, What is the approximate bond dissociation energy of the bond in NO?
BEN≡N=941kJmol−1 BEO=O=499kJmol−1
