Chapter 7.6, Problem 7.10P

Teflon-coated frying pans routinely endure temperatures that would cause polyethylene or polypropylene to oxidize and decompose. Decomposition of polyethylene is initiated by free-radical abstraction of a hydrogen atom by O2 Bond-dissociation energies of C—H bonds are about 400 kJ/mol, and C—F bonds are aboul 460 kJ/mol. The BDE of the H—OO bond is about 192 kJ/mol, and the F—OO bond is about 63 kJ/mol. Show why Teflon (Figure 7-5) is much more resistant to oxidation than polyethylene is.

Consider the following chemical reaction between component A and B: A(?) + 2B(g) → C(g)+ 3D(l) …..ΔH°r = −2253.2 kJ i. State whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. ii. Based on the value of heat of reaction, explain the chemical reaction above in terms of the energy associated with breaking or formation of molecular bonds. iii. Consider a similar reaction of A and B as the one shown above. However, the reaction now generates D in vapor form instead of liquid. Explain how the heat of reaction value differs from the one shown above. iv. If the above reaction occurs in an isothermal system where there is no work interaction and both kinetic and potential energy changes are too small such that they are negligible, write the energy balance for the system.
In CF3Cl the C—Cl bond-di s sociat ion energy i s339 kJ>mol. In CCl4 the C—Cl bond-dissociation energyis 293 kJ/mol. What is the range of wavelengths of photonsthat can cause C—Cl bond rupture in one molecule butnot in the other?
Using the bond breaking and bond forming method, estimate the enthalpy associated with combusting one mole of hydrogen with molecular oxygen to form water under standard conditions (1 M, 1 atm, 298 K).
