    When we look up the single bond energies for the H-H and Cl-Cl bonds, we find them to be +436 kJ/mol and + 243 kJ/mol, therefore for the first step of the reaction: Delta H1 = +(436 kJ + 243 kJ) = +679 kJ Bond breaking requires energy, so we expect

  • Reaction Enthalpy and Bond Energy

    Add all the energies you need to spend for braking the bonds and substruct from itthe energies you gained from forming bonds. the result is the net enthalpy for the reaction (if it is negative - you gained energy, and heat is released).
