8.112 Average bond enthalpies are generally defined for gas-phase molecules. Many substances
are liquids in their standard state. (Section 5.7) By using appropriate thermochemical data from
Appendix C, calculate average bond enthalpies in the liquid state for the following bonds, and
compare these values to the gas-phase values given in Table 8.4: (a) Br – Br, from Br
(l); (b) C

the gas phase). (d) What can you conclude about the process of breaking bonds in the liquid as
compared to the gas phase? Explain the difference in the values between the two phases.
