Answer:
1 .
2.
Explanation:
The more stable the ionic compound, the more is it lattice energy.
- The more the charge on the cation and the anion, the greater is the lattice energy.
- The less the size of the cation and the anion, the greater is the lattice energy.
Scandium oxide (
) is an oxide in which
behaves as cation and
behaves as anion.
The compounds which has higher lattice energy than scandium oxide are:
1 .
This is because the charge are same on the cation and the anion as in the case of the Scandium oxide but the size of the cation
is smaller than
. Thus, this corresponds to higher lattice energy.
2.
This is because the charge on the cation
is greater than that of
and also the size of the cation
is smaller than
. Thus, this corresponds to higher lattice energy.
Answer:
However, if something happens to make an atom lose or gain an electron then the atom will no longer be neutral.
Explanation:
A charged atom is called an ion. When an atom loses electron(s) it will lose some of its negative charge and so becomes positively charged. A positive ion is formed where an atom has more protons than electrons.
