Problem

The potential-energy curve for the H–F bond shows a minimum potential energy of

-565\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1}

at an internuclear distance of

92\,\text{pm}

. Approximately what is the bond energy of the H–F bond? a)

283\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1}

565\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1}

1130\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1}

-565\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1}
