<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.

If two nonmetals are bonded together. So look at your periodic table of elements and decide if the two elements that are being bonded are nonmetals or not.
The highest value of the ion is the nucleon number. The correct option is a.
<h3>What is nucleon number?</h3>
The mass number of an element is so named because it represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the element.
The total number of protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus is known as the mass number, also known as the atomic mass number or nucleon number. It is roughly equivalent to the atomic mass expressed in atomic mass units.
In the given ion Q+, the nucleon number has the highest value in the ion
Thus, the correct option is a.
