Question

 Using a Born-Haber cycle, calculate the enthalpy of formation of calcium fluoride, CaF2(s), given the
following data:

Ca (s) → Ca (g) +179 kJ ⁄ mol
Ca (g) → Ca+ (g) + e− +590 kJ ⁄ mol
Ca+ (g) → Ca2+ (g) + e− +1145 kJ ⁄ mol
F2 (g) → 2 F (g) +158 kJ ⁄ mol
F (g) + e− → F− (g) −328 kJ ⁄ mol
Ca2+ (g) + 2 F− (g) → CaF2 (s) −2630 kJ ⁄ mol

A. −696 kJ ⁄ mol
B. −886 kJ ⁄ mol
C. −965 kJ ⁄ mol
D. –1214 kJ ⁄ mol
E. –1293 kJ ⁄ mol
