Expert Solution
Step 1

Born-Haber cycle helps to analyse the energies in a reaction and lattice energy can be calculated.

It is based on Hess law that is" the total enthalpy of the reaction remains the same whether a reaction takes place in one step or it takes place in several steps".

It involves many steps as electron affinity, ionization energy, sublimation energy the heat of formation and dissociation energy.

It is a cycle of enthalpy change of process that leads to the formation of solid crystalline ionic compound from the elemental atoms in their standard state and the enthalpy of formation of the solid compound such that the net enthalpy becomes zero.
