Using the bond energies provided, calculate the enthalpy of the reaction (∆Hrxn, in kJ) for the combustion of methanol shown below. CH3OH(l) +3/2 O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2 H2O(g)
Many free radicals combine to form molecules that do not contain any unpaired electrons. The driving force for the radical-
radical combination reaction is the formation of a new electron-pair bond.
Consider the formation of hydrogen peroxide.

- The average bond enthalpies of the C¬F and C¬Cl bonds are 485 kJ/mol and 328 kJ/mol, respectively.
