Grade C Question.
Hydrogen
burns in chlorine.
H2(g) + Cl2(g) 2HCl(g)
a. One
each of H–H and Cl–Cl bonds breaks.
b. Two H–Cl bonds form.
c. Energy to break bonds = 434 kJ + 242 kJ = 676
kJ
Energy given out on forming bonds
= 2 × 431 kJ = 862 kJ
= 2 × 431 kJ = 862 kJ
Overall energy change = -186 kJ given out.
d.
Exothermic
Grade A Question 3.
a. Bonds broken = 1933kJ
Bonds formed = 1959kJ
Overall energy = -26kJ
b. Exothermic as the value is negative
Grade B Question 4
a.Negative
amount of energy given out. So products have less energy than the reactants.
b.Is
the minimum energy needed to start a reaction.
Grade A
