Question

Calculate the enthalpy of the following reaction:
H2C=CH2(g)+H2(g)CH3CH3(g)
The bond energies of CH,CC,C=C and HH are 99,83,147 and 104 kcal respectively.

Solution

The reaction is given as (figure)
ΔH= Sum of bond energies of reactants Sum of bond energies of products
[ΔHC=C+4×ΔHCH+ΔHHH][ΔHCC+6×ΔHCH]
=(147+4×99+104)(83+6×99)
=30kcal
