The correct Answer is:
To calculate the enthalpy of hydrogenation for the reaction: \[ C_2H_4(g) + H_2(g) \rightarrow C_2H_6(g) \] we will use the bond enthalpy values provided. The bond enthalpies given are: - H-H: 433 kJ/mol - C=C: 615 kJ/mol - C-C: 347 kJ/mol - C-H: 413 kJ/mol ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the bonds in the reactants and products:** - In the reactant \( C_2H_4 \) (ethene), we have: - 1 C=C bond - 4 C-H bonds - In the reactant \( H_2 \), we have: - 1 H-H bond - In the product \( C_2H_6 \) (ethane), we have: - 1 C-C bond - 6 C-H bonds 2. **Calculate the total bond enthalpy for the reactants:** - The total bond enthalpy for the reactants is calculated as follows: \[ \text{Total bond enthalpy (reactants)} = \text{C=C} + 4 \times \text{C-H} + \text{H-H} \] - Substituting the values: \[ = 615 \, \text{kJ/mol} + 4 \times 413 \, \text{kJ/mol} + 433 \, \text{kJ/mol} \] - Calculate: \[ = 615 + 1652 + 433 = 2700 \, \text{kJ/mol} \] 3. **Calculate the total bond enthalpy for the products:** - The total bond enthalpy for the products is calculated as follows: \[ \text{Total bond enthalpy (products)} = 6 \times \text{C-H} + \text{C-C} \] - Substituting the values: \[ = 6 \times 413 \, \text{kJ/mol} + 347 \, \text{kJ/mol} \] - Calculate: \[ = 2478 + 347 = 2825 \, \text{kJ/mol} \] 4. **Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction:** - The enthalpy change (\( \Delta H \)) for the reaction is given by: \[ \Delta H = \text{Total bond enthalpy (reactants)} - \text{Total bond enthalpy (products)} \] - Substituting the values: \[ \Delta H = 2700 \, \text{kJ/mol} - 2825 \, \text{kJ/mol} \] - Calculate: \[ \Delta H = -125 \, \text{kJ/mol} \] ### Final Answer: The enthalpy of hydrogenation for the reaction is: \[ \Delta H = -125 \, \text{kJ/mol} \]
