Bond Energy Calculation Flashcards
1
Q
Is bond forming exothermic or endothermic?
A
Exothermic because energy is released when new bonds are formed
2
Q
What is the equation for the energy of a reaction?
A
energy of a reaction/ = energy needed to +- energy released
energy change break bonds in the bonds are formed in
reactants the products
energy = breaking - making
3
Q
Is bond breaking exothermic or endothermic?
A
Endothermic because energy must be put in to break the bonds
