This revised edition has been updated to meet the minimum requirements of the new Singapore GCE A level syllabus that would be implemented in the year 2016. Nevertheless, this book is also highly relevant to students who are studying chemistry for other examination boards. In addition, the authors have also included more Q&A to help students better understand and appreciate the chemical concepts that they are mastering.
Explanation: Let the bond energy of O–O bond in hydrogen peroxide be BE(O–O). Total energy absorbed during bond-breaking = 2 × BE(O-O). Total energy released during bond forming = 1 × 486 = 486 kJ mol-1. Hence, DH = 2 × BE(O-O) - 486 ...
bond, and (ii) the sigma bond in a C=C double bond is not of the same strength as that in a C–C single bond. In fact, the presence of an extra pair of pi electrons in the C=C double bond actually weakens the sigma bond in it due to an ...
This book adds a unique pedagogical edge which few can rival. This book is essential and useful in order for students to be adequately prepared for their high stake examinations.
'This is a book for crystal chemistry lovers written by one of the pioneers of solid-state chemistry.
This proven book introduces the basics of coordination, solid-state, and descriptive main-group chemistry in a uniquely accessible manner, featuring a less is more approach.
The carbon-carbon bond energies increase in the order: ethane < benzene < ethene < ethyne. Hence, the bond length would also decrease in this similar trend, with the C–C bond in ethane the longest. As the number of bonds between the two ...
Bond energy: This is the amount of heat energy required to break one mole of the covalent bond. For example, the bond energy of Cl–Cl is +242 kJ mol', while Br-Br is +193 kJ mol'. Cl2(g) → 2Cl(g) Bond energy = +242 kJ mol' Br2(g) ...

We also saw that another andentirely equivalent way of applying the Second Law is to express it in terms of the Gibbs energy (Section 2.7 on p. 16); using this, a spontaneous process is one in which the Gibbs energy decreases.
