Answer:

Correct Answer: 75. $\left(2.16 \times 10^{20} J /\right.$ atom $)$

Solution:

  1. Moles of $H _2=\frac{p V}{R T}=\frac{1 \times 1}{0.082 \times 298}=0.0409$

$\Rightarrow$ Bond energy $=0.0409 \times 436=17.84 kJ$ Number of H-atoms produced after dissociation

$$ =2 \times 0.0409 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}=4.93 \times 10^{22} $$

Transition energy/atom $=2.18 \times 10^{-18}\left(1-\frac{1}{4}\right) J$

$$ =\frac{3}{4} \times 2.18 \times 10^{-18} J $$

$\Rightarrow$ Total transition energy

$$ \begin{aligned} & =\frac{3}{4} \times 2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times 4.93 \times 10^{22} J \ & =80.60 \times 10^{3} J=80.60 kJ \end{aligned} $$

Therefore, total energy required

$$ \begin{aligned} & =\text { dissociation energy }+ \text { transition energy } \ & =(17.84+80.60) kJ=98.44 kJ \end{aligned} $$
