Answer #1

Monofluorination of methane is

H3C-H + F-F ------------> H3C-F + H-F

ΔHo = BDE of reactants - BDE of products [ BDE = Bond dissociation energy]

= BDE of [ H3C-H + F-F] - BDE [ H3C-F + H-F]

= 105 kcal/mol + 38 kcal/mol - [ 110 kcal/mol + 136 kcal/mol]

= -103 kcal/mol

Therefore,

ΔHo = -103 kcal/mol
