To find the bond energy of each carbon-oxygen double bond in carbon dioxide (CO2), we first need to consider the structure of CO2. Each molecule of carbon dioxide contains two carbon-oxygen double bonds.

The total bond energy of all the bonds in one molecule of CO2 is given as 1,472 kJ. Since there are 2 double bonds in a CO2 molecule, we can divide the total bond energy by the number of double bonds:

\[ \text{Bond energy per double bond} = \frac{1,472 \text{ kJ}}{2} = 736 \text{ kJ} \]

Thus, the bond energy of each carbon-oxygen double bond in carbon dioxide is 736 kJ.
