Question

What is the bond dissociation energy required to break the carbon-hydrogen bond in methane (CH4)? (Hint: the bond dissociation energy is the amount of energy required to break a bond and form separate atoms or molecules.)

Answer 1

The bond dissociation energy required to break the carbon-hydrogen bond in methane  CH4  is approximately 439 kJ/mol. This value represents the amount of energy needed to break one C-H bond and form separate atoms.
