<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.

Proton and neutron because e does not matter much
and the mass of atom as you already know is consist of p and n
The number of particles (molecules or atoms) is: 6.022 x 10²³ particles (atoms or molecules).
1 mol of H₂O has 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.
1 mol of Al has 6.022 x 10²³ atoms.
The equation that is a decomposition reaction is
PbCO3(s) ---> PbO(s) + CO2(g)
That is option D.
<h3>Properties of a decomposition reaction</h3>
A chemical reaction is defined as the combination of substances called reactants to form a product. The various types of chemical reaction include:
- single or double replacement reaction
Decomposition reaction is that type of chemical reaction in which the reactant breaks down to form two or more products.
Therefore the heating of lead (II) carbonate is a decomposition reaction.
