The bond energy for a C-H bond is about 413 kJ/mol in CH 4 but 380 kJ/mol

Question:

The bond energy for a C-H bond is about 413 kJ/mol in CH4 but 380 kJ/mol in CHBr3. Although these values are relatively close in magnitude, they are different. Explain why they are different. Does the fact that the bond energy is lower in CHBr3 make any sense? Why?
