Enthalpy and Bond Energy Sign Convention
I read that a negative enthalpy of formation means an exothermic reaction. Does that mean this reaction is true? The enthalpy of formation for $\ce{H_2O}$ is -285.8 kJ/mol.
$$\ce{2H2(g) + O2(g) -> ...

Can single molecules of C and O2 react in isolation, and if so how will momentum be conserved?
I am trying to figure out how is it possible to reconcile the reality of exothermic reactions, which means that kinetic energy is transferred to (heats) the surrounding matter, with the principle of ...

Why are condensation reactions endergonic?
My lecture notes state that
Condensation reactions, like all biosynthetic reactions, are endergonic.
I am unsure as to why this would be the case. I thought bond formation was an exothermic ...

Calculating bond disassociation energy and bond energy for ATP [closed]
I'd like to calculate Bond Dissociation Energy and Bond Energy for ATP to a similar molecule. What free (at least for academic use) computer programs which natively support and document BDE?
If you ...
