Answer: The Lattice energy is the energy required to separate an ionic solid into its component gaseous ions <em>or</em>
It is the energy released when gaseous ions combine to form an ionic solid.
Explanation:
The lattice energy depends on the ionization energies and electron affinities of atoms involved in the formation of the compound. The ionization energies and electron affinities also depends on the ionic radius and charges of the ions involved. As the ionic radius for cations <em>increases</em> down the groups, ionization energy <em>decreases</em>, whereas, as ionic radii <em>decreases</em> across the periods , ionization energy <em>increases</em>. The trend observed for anions is that as ionic radii <em>increase </em>down the groups, electron affinity <em>decreases. </em>Across the period, as ionic radii <em>increases</em> electron affinity <em>increases</em>. Also, as the charge on the ion <em>increases,</em> it leads to an <em>increase</em> in energy requirement/content.
Therefore, for compounds formed from cations and anions in the same period, the highest charged cation and anion will have the highest lattice energy. For example, among the following compounds: Al2O3 (aluminium oxide), AlCl3 (aluminium chloride), MgO, MgCl2 (magnesium chloride), NaCl, Na2O (sodium oxide); Al2O3(aluminium oxide) will have the highest lattice energy, thus will be hardest to break apart because its ions have the highest charge.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Strontium (Sr)
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The condition given in statement is the presence of two valence electron. Hence, first we found the electronic configuration of given atoms as follow;
Rubidium [Kr] 5s¹
Strontium [Kr] 5s²
Zirconium [Kr] 4d² 5s²
Silver [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s¹
From above configurations it is cleared that only Strontium and Zirconium has two electrons in its valence shell.
We also know that s-block elements are more reactive than transition elements due to less shielding effect in transition elements hence, making it difficult for transition metals to loose electrons as compared to s-block elements. Therefore, we can conclude that Strontium present in s-block with two valence electrons is the correct answer.
I think it’s “Removed from”
The moles of ammonium nitrate needed to dissolve 0.35 moles
The moles of water that will react is 0.35 moles as due to ratio
so mass of water will be 0.35 x 18=6.3g
MASS OF WATER WILL BE 6.3 g
