The average bond enthalpies for single, double, and triple homonuclear nitrogen bonds are given below:
N—N: 163 kJ/mol
N═N: 418 kJ/mol
N≡N: 941 kJ/mol
Calculate the average contribution of a π-bond towards the bond enthalpy. What fraction of the N≡N bond enthalpy is represented by this contribution?
