Chemical compounds have an internal energy obtained when they were originally formed.
To get them to react further may require more energy for the new reaction to take place.
Bond energy is the amount of energy required to break the bonds in one mole of a particular covalent bond of a substance in the gaseous state.
Bond energy - breaking and making bonds 1
Before the reaction, the reactants have energy, but are stable & do not react.
Bonds in the reactants need to be broken & energy – called activation energy, is required for this.
As new bonds form during the reaction, energy is released.
Sometimes the energy released is greater than the activation energy & we call the reaction an exothermic reaction.
If less – it is called an endothermic reaction.Heating CuSO4

The Cl2 molecule is stable & requires energy to break the bond.
This is a endothermic process. Energy supplied is called the bond energy.Making new bonds is an exothermic process as energy is liberated.
Bond energy liberated measures strength of bond.

The bond strength is an indication of how much energy is required to break a bond or how much is released when the new bond is formed.

498Methane is a gas that burns in O2 to form CO2, H2O & liberates energy.
Energy must be supplied (match- activation energy) to start the reaction.
Establish if this is endothermic or exothermic.8

2 O=O 2 X 498 2 X C=O 2 X 803 bonds = 996 bonds = - 1606 Totals = 2652 = - 3462
As 1 mole of CH4 burns, there is thus a net decrease in energy of -810 kJ.mol-1 & ∴ it is an exothermic reaction with a net loss of energy.

In general, the longer the bond, the less energy required to break the bond.
