Use the information in the table to answer the question.
Bond. Bond Energy (kJ/mol)
C-H 413
H-O 459
C-Cl 327
N-H 391
Which molecule has the greatest bond energy? - Answer CH4
The balanced equations for two reactions are shown.
(1) CH4 + N2 + H2 → CH3N + NH3
(2) CH4 + I2 → CH3I + HI
Which statement best explains why reaction 1 requires a greater input of energy than reaction
2? - Answer The bond energy of the reactants in reaction 1 is greater than the bond energy
of the reactants in reaction 2.
Chlorine and bromine are in the same group in the periodic table. The bond energy of a Cl-Cl
bond is 240 kJ/mol. The bond energy of a Br-Br bond is 190 kJ/mol. Which statement best
explains this difference? - Answer Bromine has more electron levels than chlorine.
