Bond Energies and Enthalpy Changes

Calculating the net enthalpy change based on the energy required to break and form bonds.

Key Questions

  1. 1How does the strength of chemical bonds relate to the overall enthalpy change of a reaction?
  2. 2Why is bond breaking considered an endothermic process?
  3. 3How can we predict if a reaction will be overall exothermic based on bond energy data?
