Organic Chemistry
Use the bond dissociation energies (kcal/mole) listed below to predict which of the following statements 1 or 2) would be expected to yield the most product. Be sure to show your work.
R-H (98) R-C (81) RI (53) Cl-Cl (58) I-I (36)
H-Cl (103) H-I (71)
1) RH (g) + Cl 2 (g) - > RCL(g) + HCL (g)
2) RH (g) + I2 (g) -> RI (g) HI (g)
