Question

The total bonding energy for the products of a reaction is 2535 kJ/mol and the bonding energy of the reactants is 1375 kJ/mol. Calculate the change in enthalpy, and classify the reaction as endothermic or exothermic.
A) -1160 kJ/mol, endothermic
B) -1160 kJ/mol, exothermic

Answer 1

Answer:

1160 kJ/mol

Explanation:

To get the enthalpy of the reaction take ΔH products- ΔH reactants
