Question

for each pair, choose the compound with the higher lattice energy. (a)bas or cscl (select) (b) licl or cscl licl

Answer 1

In (a) BaS have higher lattice energy than CsCl whereas in (b) LiCl have higher lattice energy than CsCl.

What is lattice energy ?

it is the energy change upon formation of one mole of a crystalline ionic compound from its constituent ions, which are assumed to initially be in the gaseous state.

what factors affecting the lattice energy?

• lattice energy is directly proportional to the square of the charge on atom.

• lattice energy is inversaly proportional to the radius of the given atom.

As BaS have higher lattice energy than CsCl because of having +2 charge rather than +1 as in CsCl and LiCl have higher lattice energy than CsCl because of having smaller atomic radius of Li than Cs.
