Question 1

Bond enthalpies are shown in the table:

BondBond enthalpy / kJ mol−1\text{kJ mol}^{-1}kJ mol−1
C-H\text{C-H}C-H413
C-O\text{C-O}C-O358
C=O\text{C=O}C=O805
O-H\text{O-H}O-H464
O=O\text{O=O}O=O498

What is the enthalpy change, in kJ mol−1\text{kJ mol}^{-1}kJ mol−1, for the reaction below?

HCHO(g)+O2(g)→CO2(g)+H2O(g) \text{HCHO(g)} + \text{O}_2\text{(g)} \rightarrow \text{CO}_2\text{(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{O(g)} HCHO(g)+O2​(g)→CO2​(g)+H2​O(g)
