Answer: E
Explanation:
The lattice energy is the energy change when one mole of a crystal is formed from its components ions in its gaseous sate
Therefore lattice energy = heat of Sublimation+ ionization energy +electron affinity-(heat of formation)
Therefore lattice Energy = 109 +495 -328 +570.
Lattice energy = --923kjmol-1
Answer:
The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity
Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago
Explanation:
All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.
Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)
For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1
Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.
Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.
For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.
THE ALTERNATIVE IS 4.8g alternative c
Answer:
A. CsBr(s)
Explanation:
we will get here compound with the lowest lattice energy
solution
As we know that Lattice energy is always proportional to the charge of ions and it is inversely proportional to the size of ions.
so that by the smallest charge and the largest size give us the lowest lattice energy and that charge and size is express as here as
Charge
Cs (+1), K(+1), Na (+1), Cl(-1), Br(-1), Sr(+2), Ca(+2), O(-2) .......................1
and
Size
Na+ < Ca2+ < K+ < Sr2+ < Cs+, O2- < Cl- < Br- ..........................2
so that here
correct answer is A. CsBr
