Hey guys, this is my question.
I have almost no idea how to tackle it, so if you can help me at all I'll be forever in your debt.
An unknown gas, X2(g), which behaves much like N2(g), is analysed and the following enthalpies of formation are obtained;
Gas delta(Hf)
X(g) 441 kJ/mol
H(g) 216 kJ/mol
X2H4(g) 321 kJ/mol
We also know that the X-H bond energy is 323 kJ/mol. Use this information to estimate the X-X single-bond energy. (ans in kJ/mol.)
(is it a typo that the first two gases don't have a subscript of 2, like they do in the preamble?)
