Question
Use bond energies (Table 8.4) to predict $\Delta H$ for the isomerization of methyl isocyanide to acetonitrile:$$\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{~N} \equiv \mathrm{C}(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{N}(g)$$
Step 1
In the reactant, we have a C-H bond and a C≡N bond. In the product, we have a C-H bond and a C≡N bond as well. However, the C≡N bond is in a different order in the product. Show more…
