Similar cycles may be drawn for covalent compounds E.g. PCI5
B = Average bond energy of P-CI bond. From the cycle it follows that :∆Hoi = S + 5/2D – 5B
Bornite. Cu5FeS4. An important Cu ore dark bronze in colour. Often occurs mixed with chalcopyrite, CuF2S2
Bornyl and isobornyl chlorides. C10H17CI. Bornyl chloride, artificial camphor, is formed by the action of HCI on α-pinene, and is also formed together with its stereoisomer, chloride, by the action of PCI5 on Borneol. Bornyl chloride is easily tautomerized to isobornyl chloride. By the elimination of HCI it forms camphene.
