MCQ
Given that bond energies of $H - H$ and $Cl - Cl$ are $430\ kJ\ mol^{-1}$ and $240\ kJ\ mol^{-1}$ respectively and $\Delta H_f$ for $HCl$ is $-90\ kJ\ mol^{-1},$ bond enthalpy of $HCl$ is ............... $\mathrm{kJ \,mol}^{-1}$
  • A
    $380$
  • $425$
  • C
    $245$
  • D
    $290$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$425$
b
$\Delta H =\sum \Delta H_{f}^{0}(\text {product})-\sum \Delta H_{f}^{0}(\text {reactan} t)$

$=\left[\Delta H_{f}^{0}(H)+\Delta H_{f}^{0}(C l)\right]-\left[\Delta H_{f}^{0}(H C l)\right]$

$=\frac{1}{2} \times 430+\frac{1}{2} \times 240-(-90)$

$=425 \;\mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{mol}$
