Solution:
Energy gets released when bond is formed between two hydrogen atoms, the H2 molecule is more stable than isolated H atoms. The energy so released is called bond enthalpy which corresponds to minimum in the potential energy curve for the formation of H2 molecule. Conversely 435.8kJ energy is required to dissociate 1 mole of H2 molecule.
