Question

Find the enthalpy of SS bond from the following data (only magnitude in nearest integer in kJ/mol):

(i)C2H5SC2H5(g) ΔHof=147.2kJ/mol
(ii)C2H5SSC2H5(g) ΔHof=201.9kJ/mol
(iii)S(g) ΔHof=222.8kJ/mol

Solution

C2H5SC2H5(g)+S(g)C2H5SSC2H5(g);ΔH
The above reaction involves
1. Breaking S-C bond (x amount of energy absorbed)
2.Making S-S bond (y amount of energy released)
3. Making S-C bond (x amount of energy released)
Hence enthaply of the reaction =x-y-x = -y
And -y is nothing but the enthaply of SS bond
Therefore
Enthaply of SS bond =ΔH=ΣΔHof,productsΣΔHof,reactants=201.9+147.2+222.8=168.1kJ/mol
= 168kJ \mol
