form. The breaking
reactions,
CH8 - CH + H2
Reactant bond energies: H-C = 413 kJ/mol, C-C single bond = 347 kJ/mol
Product bond energies: H-C 413 kJ/mol, C=C double bond = 614 kJ/mol, H-H-
432 kJ/mol
Based on the bond energies, is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? Why or why
not?
(1 point)
bonds of the

onds are easier to
ble and are harder to
ands,
This reaction is exothermic, because stronger bonds are broken than
formed
The reaction is exothermic, because stronger bonds are formed than
broken
The reaction is endothermic, because stronger bonds are formed than
broken
The reaction is endothermic, because stronger bonds are broken than
formed
