Solved: Because bond formation is exothermic, when two

Chapter 9, Problem 9.146

(choose chapter or problem)

Because bond formation is exothermic, when two gas-phase atoms come together to form a diatomic molecule it is necessary for a third atom or molecule to absorb the energy that is released. Otherwise the molecule will undergo dissociation. If two atoms of hydrogen combine to form H2(g), what would be the increase in velocity of a third hydrogen atom that absorbs the energy released from this process?
