Answer:
None of these are correct, because there is no way to balance this equation, but I hope these steps help you figure out your answer.
Explanation:
Count out the single amounts of elements you have on both sides of the equation. To be balanced, you need to have the exact same for each element.
Before balanced Left side.
Cl-2
O-8
H-2
Before balanced right side.
H-1
Cl-1
O-3
That means we need to increase Hydrogen, Chlorine and Oxygen on the right for sure and see how that affects the equation. You can keep adding the Coefficients until the # of elements begin to match on each side.
(I tried to balance this equation, it doesn't work, there is too much on the reactants side for what the product is.)
The reaction;
O(g) +O2(g)→O3(g), ΔH = sum of bond enthalpy of reactants-sum of food enthalpy of products.
ΔH = ( bond enthalpy of O(g)+bond enthalpy of O2 (g) - bond enthalpy of O3(g)
-107.2 kJ/mol = O+487.7kJ/mol =O+487.7 kJ/mol +487.7kJ/mol =594.9 kJ/mol
Bond enthalpy (BE) of O3(g) is equals to 2× bond enthalpy of O3(g) because, O3(g) has two types of bonds from its lewis structure (0-0=0).
∴2BE of O3(g) = 594.9kJ/mol
Average bond enthalpy = 594.9kJ/mol/2
=297.45kJ/mol
∴ Averange bond enthalpy of O3(g) is 297.45kJ/mol.
