   Firstly, if it is negative it is exothermic as the negative sign shows that the heat is on the products side of the equation, so it is given out, rather than taken in.

   And it is Bonds Made – Bonds Broken.

   So for example, if we look at the nucleophilic substitution of Br – Br, into CH4. The products will be CH3Br and HBR.

   So add up the Bond Enthalpy of the new bonds, which you will have to trust me equals 1889 kJ per mol. (The values are in your data booklet.) Then add up the Bond Enthalpy of the old bonds, which, again you’ll have to trust me, is 1850 kJ per mol.

   So Bond Energy Change is 1889 – 1850 = 39 kJ per mol.

   So for this example, the reaction is endothermic.

   Hope that helps.

1. Where was the Energy Saving Scheme first established, and when did Architects start to respond to it?

   I'm doing a research about how the Energy Saving Scheme had changed Architecture. I would like to ask if any of you know when people started the Energy Saving Scheme (i.e. reduce energy wasting, reduce carbon emission etc); and more importantly when did architects start responding to those things (i.e. making their building more energy...

2. What is happening with the energy when a chemical bond is forming and breaking?

   What I read said that when a chemical bond is formed, energy is released, vice-versa. But when it comes to anabolic reaction, it seems contradicting. When our body makes muscle or fat, it forms chemical bonds, right? Where is the energy that released from the bonding of muscle or fat? Can we use it? Doesn't...

3. In terms of energy, is it more efficient for humans to obtain their nutrients from plants or from meat?

   In terms of energy, is it more efficient for humans to obtain their nutrients from plants or from meat? Explain. How are peas and other legumes involved in the nitrogen cycle? Suppose 10,000 units of energy are available at the level of the grasses. What is the total number of energy units lost by the time energy...

4. How to calculate the total energy in a venturi flume?

   I am doing a lab report for university and it involves a venturi flume and broad-crested weir (2 separate experiments) and need to calculate the total energy upstream of the obstruction and same downstream to calculate the energy loss. However, I have more than one "total energy" reading for them both and was wondering...

5. How does nuclear fusion produce energy when it requires energy?

   How come atoms release energy when they are split, and also release energy when they are combined? Also, if a star's mass is the force that combines hydrogen atoms and creates all the elements (via gravity), doesn't all energy in the universe initially come from the force of gravity? Where does this energy come from? Mass and...

6. What is the energy transfer of an object if you use your hands to pick it up?

   Is it from chemical potential energy (your hands) to Gravitational potential energy? Also if you dropped it, would it be from Gravitational potential energy to Kinetic Energy? well if you picked it up it would be kinetic energy wouldn't it since it has inertia and speed as you lift it. and yes if you drop it gravitational...

7. What forms of energy and energy transformations are involved in wind turbines?

   Hey Im doing a research about wind turbines and how it generates energy using wind power I need to know the energy conversions involved in the process of the wind turbines. Im not quite sure on what forms of energy are involved Here are all of the forms of energy: thermal, electrical, radiant, nuclear potential, gravitation potential, kinetic, elastic potential,...

8. How does the energy in a transverse wave travel?

   A. The energy travels at right angles to the waves. B. The energy travels at the back of the waves. C. The energy travels along the centerline of the waves. D. The energy travels along the tops of the wave peaks. A. that's the definition for a transverse wave, only 'displacement' is used instead of energy. the energy travelling causes such...

9. How will an energy diagram look for an exothermic reaction?

   A) The reactants and products will be at the same potential energy. B) The reactants are at a higher potential energy compared to the products. C) The reactants are at a lower potential energy compared to the products. D) There will not be an activation energy barrier. B)...
