<span>From the Born–Landé equation the lattice energy U ∝ (Z+ × Z-) / (r+ + r-) where Z+ and Z- are the charges on the cation and anion, respectively; r+ and r- are radii of the cation and anion, respectively.
The Z+×Z- term dominates. MgO has 2×2 (4) so it will have the higher U than Li2O Z+ × Z- = 2.
You only consider (r+ + r-) term when the Z+×Z- term is the same; smallest the (r+ + r-), the larger is the U.
U(MgO) = 3795 </span>kJ mol^-1
<span>U(Li2O) = 2799 kJ mol^-1
MgO has larger.

In chemistry, neutralization or neutralisation (see spelling differences) is a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other. In a reaction in water, neutralization results in there being no excess of hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.
<span>The answer is the H2CO. It has two sigma bonds ( the single bonds between each H and C) plus one pi bond and one sigma bond that consitute the double bond between C and O. The other compounds, CHCl3, H2S and HBr, only have single bonds which are sigma bonds.</span>
To determine the heat required in order to decompose a certain amount of a substance, we need information on the heat needed to decompose one mole of the substance. This value are readily available online and other sources. For this reaction, the heat needed is 129 kJ per 2 mol of NaHCO3. We calculate as follows:
129 KJ / 2 mol NaHCO3 (1 mol / 84.01 g ) (25.5 g NaHCO3 ) = 19.58 kJ of heat is needed.
Answer:
the difference in electronegativity is so large (2.04) that the bonding electrons spend almost all their time on the nitrogen atom.
Explanation:
Because calcium loses 2 electrons to become Ca2+, and nitrogen gains 3 electrons to become N3−, you need two calcium atoms and three nitrogen atoms in order to form a neutral compound.
