Solution

The correct option is C 76
Dissociation energy of $C H_{4}$
$= 368 kcal/mol$
$∴ C - H$ bond energy $= \frac{Dissociation Energy of C H_{4}}{Number of Bonds}$
$= \frac{368}{4} = 92 kcal/mol$
$∴ C - C$ bond energy
$= dissociation energy of C_{2} H_{6} - bond energy of 6 (C - H)$
$= 628 - 6 \times 92$
$= 628 - 552 = 76 kcal/mol$
