The average, $S - F$ bond energy in $SF _6$ if the $\Delta H^{\circ} _f$ value are $-1100, +275$ and $+80 kJ/mol$ respectively for $SF _6(g),$ S(g) and F(g) is

  1. $390.1 kJ/mol$
  2. $103.9 kJ/mol$
  3. $903.1 kJ/mol$
  4. $309.1 kJ/mol$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation
As we know,
Heat of a reaction = Bond energy of reactants - Bond energy of products
here,
$S(s) +3F _2(g) \rightarrow SF _6(g)$
so heat of reaction = 
$-1100 = 275 + 6*80$ - bond energy of $SF _6$ 
bond energy of $SF _6$ $= 1855$
so bond energy of $S-F = 1855/6 = 309.1 kJ/mol$

D Correct answer
Explanation

Bond dissociation energy $= -$ bond formation energy
Given, bond energy of hydrogen $= -433 kJ$
$\therefore$ Bond dissociation energy of one mole ${ H } _{ 2 } = 433 kJ$
$\therefore$ Bond dissociation energy of $0.5$ mole ${ H } _{ 2 }=\dfrac { 433 }{ 2 } =+216.5kJ$

B,D Correct answer
Explanation

$ nCH _2 = CH _2 \rightarrow (-CH _2 - CH _2- ) _n    \Delta H $= 100 KJ/mole
Double bond of ethylene converted to two single bonds.
$ \Delta H $ = - 100 =$ B.E. _{C=C} - 2 B.E. _{C-C}$ 
$ \implies $ - 100 = 600 - $ 2 \times B.E. _{C-C} \implies B.E. _{C-C}$ = 350 KJ/mole = 1470kcal$mol^{-1}$

C Correct answer
Explanation

$H _2A\overset {K _1}{\rightleftharpoons} HA^-+H^+$


$\Rightarrow K _1=\cfrac {[HA^-][H^+]}{[H _2A]}$  $\longrightarrow (1)$


$HA^-\overset {K _2}{\rightleftharpoons} H^++A^{2-}$

$\Rightarrow K _2=\cfrac {[H^+][A^{2-}]}{[HA^-]}$    $\longrightarrow (2)$

Overall dissociation constant $K$

$\Rightarrow K=\cfrac {[H^+]^2[A^{2-}]}{[H _2A]}=K _1\times K _2$

$=1\times 10^{-5}\times 5\times 10^{-10}$

$=5\times 10^{-15}$ .

A Correct answer
Explanation

C2H4 formation: 2C(s) + 2H2(g) → C2H4; ΔfH = 12.5 kcal. Atomization: 2C(s) → 2C(g); ΔH = 2(171) = 342 kcal. 2H2(g) → 4H(g); ΔH = 2(104.3) = 208.6 kcal. Total atomization = 550.6 kcal. This forms 4 C-H bonds (4×99.3 = 397.2) and 1 C=C bond. BE(C=C) = 550.6 - 397.2 - 12.5 = 140.9 kcal.

D Correct answer
Explanation

Delta H = Sum(BE reactants) - Sum(BE products). Reactants: 1(C=C) + 4(C-H) + 1(H-H) = 606.1 + 4(410.5) + 431.37 = 606.1 + 1642 + 431.37 = 2679.47. Products: 1(C-C) + 6(C-H) = 336.49 + 6(410.5) = 336.49 + 2463 = 2799.49. Delta H = 2679.47 - 2799.49 = -120.02 kJ/mol.

A Correct answer
Explanation

In given 2 reactions, $\Delta H$ is basically representing bond energies of H-O bond. So, our answer should be average of these two $\Delta H$ values.
Hence, Average of two bond dissociation energies:    $\frac{497.8 + 428.5}{2}$ = 463.15kJ $mol^{-1}$
