The molecule 2-butene, C4H8, can undergo a geometric change called cis-trans isomerization. (Figure 1) Such transformations can be induced by light and are the key to human vision. Rotation about the C=C bond, which breaks the π bond, is required for the isomerization.
The average bond energy (enthalpy) for a C=C double bond is 614 kJ/mol and that of a C−C single bond is 348 kJ/mol. Estimate the energy needed to break only the π bond of the double bond of 2-butene.
Express your answer numerically in joules per molecule.

- a) The following reaction occurs in an open beaker: C2H5OH (g) ---> C2H4(g) + H2O (g) {Bond Energy (kJ/mol): C-H = 415 ; C-C = 345 ; C-O = 350 ; O-H = 464 ; C=C = 611}i) Calculate the ΔH0rxn for this reaction from the given bond energies. kJ ii) Is this reaction an open, closed or isolated system? iii) Would you feel hot or cold if you were near this reaction when it occurred? This is because (choose from I - V) I. the reaction is exothermic and absorbs energy from the surroundings. II. the reaction is exothemic and releases energy to the surroundings. III. the reaction is endothermic and absorbs thermal energy from the surroundings. IV. the reaction is endothermic and loses heat to the surroundings.
