Chapter , Problem 8.111(choose chapter or problem)
Consider benzene 1C6H62 in the gas phase. (a) Write the reaction for breaking all the bonds in C6H61g2, and use data in Appendix C to determine the enthalpy change for this reaction. (b) Write a reaction that corresponds to breaking all the carboncarbon bonds in C6H61g2. (c) By combining your answers to parts (a) and (b) and using the average bond enthalpy for CH from Table 8.4, calculate the average bond enthalpy for the carboncarbon bonds in C6H61g2. (d) Compare your answer from part (c) to the values for CC single bonds and CC double bonds in Table 8.4. Is benzenes CC bond enthalpy exactly halfway between them? If not, which bond type is more similar to that of benzene, CC single or CC double bonds?
