Arrangement of atoms or group of atoms in a three dimensional ordered pattern in a crystal is said to be a crystalline lattice. They are arranged in a specific pattern with high symmetry. The heating of the crystal at high temperature will result in the increase of vibrational kinetic energy of the atoms in the crystal and this will result in the breaking of lattice apart and due to the breaking of lattice apart the ions will flow freely.
Thus, the heating of a solid at high temperature will lead to the lattice breaks apart and ions will flow freely.
The change in the standard Gibbs free energy (ΔGº) for the dissociation of nitrous acid (HNO2) at 298 K is 19.09 kJ. If the pH of the solution after equilibrium is reached is 1.30 and the NO2 – concentration at equilibrium is 0.00060 M. What is the equilibrium concentration of HNO2? Hint: Use pH to determine the equilibrium concentration of H+ .
HNO2(aq) H + (aq) + NO2 – (aq)
The answer would be heterogeneous
Answer:
This is because, the is less chance of trapping impurities in the developing crystal lattice
