Problem #90. It's simple but maybe i'm remember enthalpy incorrectly.
Br2 --------hv-----> 2 Br radicals.
what would you think is true about delta H?
I was under the impression for this reaction delta H would be negative (exothermic) because with increase in disorder comes increase in movement and thus increase in heat.
The manual says delta H is positive (endothermic). Could you clear this up for me. Thanks for your help.
