Estimate the carbon-carbon bond strength in benzene given:
2C6H6(g)+15O2(g)⟶12CO2(g)+6H2O(g) ΔH∘=−6339kJ
Bond dissociation data are the following: the strength of the O=O
bond in O2 is 498 kJ/mol, the strength of the C=O bond in CO2 is
804 kJ/mol, the strength of the H−O bond in H2O is 460 kJ/mol, the
strength of the H−C bond in benzene is 410 kJ/mol.
