Answer:
Lattice energy is <em>the energy required to convert a mole of ionic solid into its constituent ions in the gas phase</em>
Explanation:
Lattice energy is usually calculated by the Born-Haber cycle, from the affinity energies and sublimation ethalphy values. It is used as an estimation of the ionic energy strength between the ions in an ionic compound.
It is defined as the energy needed to broke 1 mol of a given ionic compound into its ions in the gaseous state. For example, the lattice energy for sodium chloride (NaCl) is the energy required to separate 1 mol of solid ionic compound (NaCl(s)) and produce the sodium and chlorine ions in the gas phase: Na⁺(g) and Cl⁻(g).
Erm, I think when they are little. When they are just born.
Answer:
Scientists debated the theories with each other and compared the theories with scientific observations
Answer:
covalent bonds
Explanation:
ionic transfer of e^- ions formed (charges)
ionic=non-metal+ metal
ex: F+Ca
covalent sharing e^- no true charges
covalent= non-metal+ non-metal
ex: F+P
