The atomisation enthalpy of $CH_4$ is $1660 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$. The $C-H$ bond enthalpy of each successive step in $CH_4$ $\rightarrow CH_3$ $\rightarrow CH_2$ $\rightarrow CH$ are $+15, +30$ and $+45 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ higher than the mean bond enthalpy of $C-H$ bonds,respectively. The bond enthalpy of the last $C-H$ unit is

  • A
    $400 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
