    Bond dissociation enthalpy of \[{{H}_{2}},C{{l}_{2}}\] and \[HCl\] are 434, 242 and \[431\,\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] respectively. Enthalpy of formation of HCl is

    A) \[93\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]                

    B) \[-245\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]                            

    C) \[-93\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]                              

    D) \[245\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: \[\Delta {{H}_{reaction}}=\Sigma \]energy of reactant \[-\Sigma \]Bond energy of product Here,     \[\Delta {{H}_{H-H}}=434\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[\Delta {{H}_{Cl-Cl}}=242\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[\Delta {{H}_{H-Cl}}=431\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[\because \]     \[\frac{1}{2}{{H}_{2}}+\frac{1}{2}C{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}HCl\] \[\Delta {{H}_{reaction}}=\frac{1}{2}\Delta {{H}_{H-H}}+\frac{1}{2}\Delta {{H}_{Cl-Cl}}-\Delta {{H}_{H-Cl}}\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 434+\frac{1}{2}\times 242-431\] \[=217+121-431\] \[=-93\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]
