Atoms have a tendency to complete their outer energy level. This is known as octet rule. That is because octet refers to 8 valence electrons, making a element stable in its outer shell.

Answer : Option C) The Octet Rule

Explanation : Atoms have a tendency to complete their outer energy level. This is known as Octet Rule.

The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb which reflects the observation, that atoms of main-group elements tends to combine in such a way that each atom gets eight electrons in its valence shell, which gives it the same electron configuration as that of a noble gas.

In short, the tendency of an atom to fill its valence shell and attain a stable state it acquires or donates the electron is called as octet rule.

Use the molar bond enthalpy data in the table to estimate the value of Δ∘rxn
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol

Explanation:

  • CH4(g) + 4Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + 4HCl(g)

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4ΔH°HCl(g) + ΔH°CCl4(g) - 4ΔH°Cl2(g) - ΔH°CH4(g)

∴ ΔH°Cl2(g) = 0 KJ/mol.....pure element in its reference state

∴ ΔH°CCl4(g) = - 138.7 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°HCl(g) = - 92.3 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°CH4(g) = - 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4(- 92.3 KJ/mol) + (- 138.7 KJ/mol) - 4(0 KJ/mol) - (- 74.8 KJ/mol)

⇒  ΔH°rxn = - 369.2 KJ/mol - 138.7 KJ/mol - 0 KJ/mol + 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol
