• b. Na (g) —> Na+ (g) + e-

• c. Na+ (g) + Cl- (g) —> NaCl (s)

• d. Na (g) —> Na (s)

How do you get ∆H Using Bond Enthalpies?

△H

= sum of energy added per mole (reactants) + sum of energy released per mole (products)

= n(ΣBE bonds broken) - n(Σ BE bonds formed)

= ΣB.E.reactants - Σ B.E. products

What are the steps to calculate Bond Enthalpy?

  1. Write your balanced chemical equation

  2. Draw the simplified Lewis structures of reactants and products.

  3. Use these values to determine the enthalpy change.
