Chapter 21, Problem 21.56E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The trend between charge density of an ion and the lattice energy of similar ionic crystals is to be predicted. The justification of this trend on physical principles is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The amount of energy released when one formula unit moles of oppositely charged gaseous ions binds together to form a crystal is known as the lattice energy. The value of lattice energy is negative. It is used as the measure for stability of a crystal.

Calculate the energy needed to dissociate 1.00 mol of crystalline RbCl into its gaseous ions if the Madelung constant for its structure is 1.7476 and the radii of Rb1 and Cl- are 1.48 Å and 1.81 Å, respectively. Assume that the repulsive energy reduces the lattice energy by 10% from the pure Coulomb energy
