Why is energy required to break a covalent bond

Chemistry

Because when a chemical reaction occurs. molecular bonds are broken and other bonds are formed to make different molecules. Like for example: two bonds of water molecules are broken up into hydrogen and water form. Energy is required to break a bond.

Hope this helped :)

Of the following equilibria, only ________ will shift to the right in response to a decrease in volume. N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) 2NH3 (g
igomit [66]

Answer:

Of the following equilibria, only one will shift to the right in response to a decrease in volume.

N_2 (g) + 3H_2 (g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3 (g)

On decreasing the volume the equilibrium will shift in right direction due to less number of gaseous moles on product side.

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

Decrease the volume

If the volume of the container is decreased , the pressure will increase according to Boyle's Law. Now, according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease in pressure is taking place. So, the equilibrium will shift in the direction number of gaseous moles are less.

N_2 (g) + 3H_2 (g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3 (g)

On decreasing the volume the equilibrium will shift in right direction due to less number of gaseous moles on product side.

2 Fe_2O_3 (s) \rightleftharpoons 4 Fe (s) + 3O_2 (g)

On decreasing the volume the equilibrium will shift in left direction due to less number of gaseous moles on reactant side.

2 SO_3 (g) \rightleftharpoons 2 SO_2 (g) + O_2 (g)

On decreasing the volume the equilibrium will shift in left direction due to less number of gaseous moles on reactant side.

H_2 (g) + Cl_2 (g) \rightleftharpoons 2 HCl (g)

On decreasing the volume the equilibrium will shift in no direction due to same number of gaseous moles on both sides.

2HI (g) \rightleftharpoons H_2 (g) + I_2 (g)

On decreasing the volume the equilibrium will shift in no direction due to same number of gaseous moles on both sides.

Which of the following is false about a neutral atom of hydrogen?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A neutral hydrogen atom is defined as the atom in which electrons are resent in their ground state only.

Basically in a neutral atom electrons are present in their parent shell.

For example, atomic number of hydrogen is 1 and electronic configuration of a neutral atom of hydrogen is 1s^{1}.

Hence, it means there is only one electron present in its valence shell. So, in order to attain stability it will readily react with another atom to gain or share an electron.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it is less chemically reactive than an atom of aluminum (Al), is false.
