the enthalpy of combustion of acetylene using bond energies data First write the balanced equation where the coefficient of acetylene is 1 C2H2 g 5 2 O2 g 2CO2 g H2O l Then draw the structures for

reactions are exothermic and so have negative H values A more thorough understanding can be gained by thinking through how energy is absorbed and released through the breaking and formation of chemical bonds Breaking Bonds Requires Energy Forming Bonds Releases Energy All tabular values for bond energies are positive but you can imagine that for the bonds that are breaking reactants energy is put into the system and for bonds that are forming products energy is released out of the system So H Bond Energy of Reactants Bond Energy of Products Revised DVB 12 03 13 LaBrake Vanden Bout 2013
