Question

Consider the following hypothetical reaction XY + Z → XZ + Y + 20 kJ

  1. What bond is being broken? 

  2. Breaking this bond requires energy/releases energy (circle one).

  3. What bond is being formed? 

  4. Forming this bond requires energy/releases energy (circle one).

  5. What is the sign for the change in enthalpy of this reaction?

  6. Based on the enthalpy, what relationship can you draw between the energy of the bonds breaking and the energy of bonds forming in this reaction?

  7. The energy needed to break an XY bond is 70 kJ. What is the energy produced when an XZ bond forms?
