The enthalpy changes at 25°C in successive breaking of O–H bonds of water are :
H2O(g) \(\text { ⟶ }\) H(g) + OH(g) ∆H = 498 kJ mol–1
OH(g) \(\text { ⟶ }\) H(g) + O(g) ∆H = 428 kJ mol–1
the bond enthalpy of the O–H bond is :
  1. 498 kJ mol–1
  2. 463 kJ mol–1
  3. 428 kJ mol–1
  4. 70 kJ mol–1

Answer

(B) 463 kJ mol –1
