Question 1
What is bond energy?
- AEnergy released when a bond forms
- BEnergy required to break one mole of a particular bond
- CEnergy stored in the nucleus
- DEnergy required to melt a substance
Show answerHide answer
Answer: B
Bond energy is the energy required to break one mole of a particular bond in the gaseous state.
Question 2
What happens to energy when a chemical bond is broken?
- AEnergy is released
- BEnergy is absorbed
- CNo energy change occurs
- DEnergy is converted into mass
Show answerHide answer
Answer: B
Breaking a chemical bond requires energy so energy is absorbed.
Question 3
What happens to energy when a chemical bond is formed?
- AEnergy is absorbed
- BEnergy is destroyed
- CEnergy is released
- DTemperature always decreases
Show answerHide answer
Answer: C
Bond formation releases energy.
Question 4
Which equation is used to calculate enthalpy change from bond energies?
- AΔH = bonds formed + bonds broken
- BΔH = bonds broken − bonds formed
- CΔH = bonds broken × bonds formed
- DΔH = bonds formed ÷ bonds broken
Show answerHide answer
Answer: B
Enthalpy change is calculated by subtracting the total energy of bonds formed from the total energy of bonds broken.
Question 5
If 500 kJ is absorbed to break bonds and 700 kJ is released when new bonds form what is ΔH?
- A+1200 kJ
- B+200 kJ
- C−200 kJ
- D−1200 kJ
Show answerHide answer
Answer: C
ΔH = 500 − 700 = −200 kJ.
