    Q1

    Using bond energies, calculate the \(\Delta H_{rxn}\) for each of the following:

    1. \(2H_{2\,(g)} + O_{2\,(g)} \rightarrow 2H_2O_{(l)}\)
    2. \(CH_{4\,(g)} + 2O_{2\,(g)} \rightarrow CO_{2\,(g)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}\)

    Bond type Bond Energy, kJ/mol Bond type Bond Energy, kJ/mol
    \(H - H\) 436 \(C - O\) 358
    \(O - O\) 146 \(C = O\) 799
    \(O = O\) 498 \(C - H\) 413
    \(O - H\) 463
