Sodium fluoroacetate (Nao:C:H:F) is a common poison used in New Zealand to control invasive species, such as rats. It can be prepared by the substitution of a C-CI bond in sodium chloroacetate (NaO:C.H:CI) for a C-F bond. What is the approximate enthalpy change for this substitution reaction on a 6.500 mole sample, based on the following bond energies? C-CI = 339.0 kJ/mol C-F- 485.0 kJ/mol
