Approximately how much energy (in kJ) would be released during the formation of the bonds in 2.00 mol of acetone molecules

7822 kJ

Explanation:

The formula for acetone is: CH3COCH3

From the standard bond energy(enthalpy):

C - H bond = 412

C - C bond = 348

C = O bond = 743

From the structure of an acetone

C is bonded to H in six places;

so, for  C- H bond = 6 × 412 = 2472

C is only bonded to two other carbon atoms

For C - C bond = 2 × 348 = 696

Carbon is only doubly bonded to an oxygen atom

For C = O bond = 1 × 743 = 743

∴

The total net energy bond in a mole = (2472 + 696 + 743) kJ/mol

= 3911 kJ/mol

Finally, in 2 moles of acetone, the required amount of energy will be:

= 3911 kJ/moles × 2 moles

= 7822 kJ
