Define and explain the enthalpy of atomisation`(Delta_(a)H^(theta)).`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The heat required to dissociate 1 mole of a simple molecule in the gaseous state into its constituent atoms.
This is an endothermic process.
Ex. `O_(2(g)) to 2O_(g) " "triangleH="489.5KJ"`
`N_(2(g)) to 2N_(g) " "triangleH=937.4KJ`
