42. The compound HOC1 is known, but the related compound HC1O, with a different order for the atoms in the molecule, is not known. Calculations suggest that the activation energy for the conversion HOCI → HC10 is 311 kJ mol¬1 and that for the conversion HC1O → HOCI is 31 kJ mol¬1. Estimate AU for the reaction HOCI → HC1O.
