MCQ
The bond dissociation energies of $\mathrm{X}_{2}, \mathrm{Y}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{XY}$ are in the ratio of $1: 0.5: 1 . \Delta \mathrm{H}$ for the formation of $\mathrm{XY}$ is $-200\; \mathrm{kJ} \mathrm{mol}^{-1} .$ The bond dissociation energy of $X_2$ will be......$\mathrm{kJ} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$
  • A
    $200$
  • B
    $100$
  • $800$
  • D
    $400$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$800$
c
let B.E. of $\mathrm{x}_{2}, \mathrm{y}_{2} \;and\; \mathrm{xy}$ are $\mathrm{x} \;\mathrm{kJ}\; mol^{-1}$

$0.5 \;\mathrm{x} \mathrm{kJ} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$ and $\mathrm{x}\; \mathrm{kJ} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$ respectively

$\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{x}_{2}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{y}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{xy} ; \Delta \mathrm{H}=-200 \mathrm{kJmol}^{-1}$

$\Delta \mathrm{H}=-200=\Sigma(\mathrm{B} . \mathrm{E})$ Reactant $-\Sigma(\mathrm{B} . \mathrm{E})$ product

$=\left[\frac{1}{2} \times(\mathrm{x})+\frac{1}{2} \times(0.5 \mathrm{x})\right]-[1 \times(\mathrm{x})]$

B.E of $\mathrm{X}_{2}=\mathrm{x}=800 \mathrm{kJ} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$
