In summary, bond enthalpy, also known as bond energy, is the amount of energy required to break a chemical bond and separate the bonded atoms. The bond enthalpy of N=O can be calculated by subtracting the bond enthalpy of nitrogen-nitrogen (N-N) bond from the bond enthalpy of oxygen-oxygen (O-O) bond. It varies depending on the specific molecule and its chemical environment, but on average it is approximately 607 kJ/mol. The bond enthalpy of N=O is important in chemistry as it provides information about the strength, stability, and reactivity of molecules containing this bond. It can also be used to predict energy changes in chemical reactions and optimize reactions in

Check the back of your book? Index C or something like that.

(at the ocassion of the first aniversary of this question)
the enthalpy of atomisation of nitrogen monoxide is close to 632 kJ/mol.
This may be a fair first estimate of the bond enthalpy of N=O.

I understand the frustration of not being able to find the necessary information for your research. However, bond enthalpy is a complex concept and can vary depending on the specific molecules involved. It is important to note that bond enthalpy is not a constant value, but rather a range of values that can be affected by factors such as temperature and pressure.

To accurately determine the bond enthalpy for a nitrogen double bonded with oxygen (N=O), you will need to consider the specific molecules involved and their molecular structures. This can be done through experimental methods such as calorimetry or theoretical calculations using quantum mechanics.

I suggest consulting scientific databases or journals for published bond enthalpy values for N=O in similar molecules. Additionally, you can reach out to experts in the field for guidance and assistance in your research. Good luck with your studies!
