Solution

The correct option is A 436.0
Reaction H2(g)2H(g)
entropy of H2130.6J/molK
entropy of H114.6J/molK
H2(g)2H(g);G=406.62kJ/molG=406.62kJ/molT=298K
We know, G=HTS;H=?
For the reaction,
S= 2(entropy of H) - 1(entropy of H2)
=2(114.6)1(130.6)=98.6J/K=98.6×103kJ/KG=HTS406.62=H(298)(98.6×103)H=436
Hence bond energy =H=436kJ/mol
