If the following reaction is favorable, what can we say about the sign of ∆H°? Explain your answer.

Give the approximate bond-dissociation energy for each indicated bond.

Calculate ∆H° for the following alkene addition reaction, one we discuss further in Chapter 7. Predict the sign of ∆S° . (The BDE for C―C π bond is approximately 65 kcal/mol.)

Reaction (c), on the other hand, is favored (∆G° < 0). Identify the bonds formed and broken and explain this result in light of (a) and (b).
