Answer #1

Bond enthalpy is energy required to break a bond.

N2(g) -> 2 N(g) ΔH = 418.0 KJ/mol

Given:

ΔHo rxn = 418.0 KJ/mol

Hof(N2(g)) = 0.0 KJ/mol

Balanced chemical equation is:

N2(g) ---> 2 N(g)

ΔHo rxn = 2*Hof(N(g)) - 1*Hof( N2(g))

418.0 = 2*Hof(N(g)) - 1*(0.0)

Hof(N(g)) = -209 KJ/mol

Answer: -209 KJ/mol
