QUESTION:
The bond enthalpy of the \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{N}\) bond in the amide group of proteins (see Problem 9.81) can be treated as an average of \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{N}\) and \(\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{N}\) bonds. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light needed to break the bond.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
The bond enthalpy of bond in the amide group is an average value of the bond enthalpy of bonds.
From the table 9.4(reference in the textbook)
The bond enthalpy of = 276 KJ/mol
The bond enthalpy of i= 615 KJ/mol
The bond enthalpy of bond in amide group is,
