Chapter 8, Problem 55A
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Bond dissociation is to be explained.

Concept Interpretation:

Molecules are formed via a long-lasting attraction between atoms or ions known as a chemical bond. The bond may be formed by the exchange of electrons or by the electrostatic attraction of two ions with opposite charges.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 55A

The energy needed to dissociate a covalent link between two atoms is known as the bond dissociation energy.

Explanation of Solution

The amount of energy needed to separate two atoms that are covalently connected is known as the bond dissociation energy.

So, when there is a strong covalent bond between two atoms, a large bond dissociation energy is required.
