Which of the following has the highest lattice energy? 1) Na2S 2) RbF 3) CaF2 4) RbI 5) CaS 6) SrF2
Added by Vagec M.
Step 1
It is directly proportional to the product of the charges of the ions and inversely proportional to the sum of the radii of the ions. 1) Na2S: Sodium ion (Na+) has a charge of +1 and sulfide ion (S2-) has a charge of -2. 2) RbF: Rubidium ion (Rb+) has a charge Show more…
