(a) The ionization energy of potassium (K) is 4.34 eV and the electron affinity of chlorine (Cl) is -3.61 eV. The Madelung constant for the KCl structure is 1.748 and the distance between ions of opposite sign is 0.314 nm. On the basis of these data only, compute the cohesive energy of KCl per ion pair. (b) The observed cohesive energy of KCl is 6.42 eV per ion pair. On theassumption that the difference between this figure and that obtained in (a) is due to the exclusion principle repulsion, find the exponent n in the formula Br^-n for the potential energy arising from this source.

The lead-acid storage battery is the oldest rechargeable battery in existence. It was invented in 1859 by French physician Gaston Plante and still retains application todaY, more than 150 years later. There are two reactions that take place during discharge of the lead-acid storage battery. In one step, sulfuric acid decomposes to form sulfur trioxide and water: H, SO,() – SO;(9) + H,O() AH-+113. kJ In another step, lead, lead(IV) oxide, and sulfur trioxide react to form lead(II) sulfate: Pb(s) – PbO,(s) - 2 S0, (g) → 2 PbSO,(s) AH= -775. J Calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of lead(II) sulfate from lead, lead(IV) oxide, and sulfuric acid from these reactions. Round your answer to the nearest kJ.
