Question -
The dissociation energy of CH4 is 400 Kcal mol−1 and that of ethane is 670 Kcal mol−1. The C - C bond energy is.
Options:
A .  270 kcal
B .  70 kcal
C .  200 kcal
D .  240 kcal
Answer: Option B : B CH4 has 4 C - H bonds ∴ Energy needed to break a single C - H bond is 4004= 100 Kcal C2H6 has 6 C - H bonds ∴ The C - C bond energy can be given by 670 Kcal - 6 × 100 Kcal = 70 Kcal
