Interpretation:
The position in the periodic table needs to be determined using the atom’s valence electron configuration.
Concept introduction:
Electronic configuration of an element is the arrangement of elements in different orbitals like s, p, d, f. The filing of the electrons in the orbitals follow the Aufbau Principle.

Answer to Problem 46A
The location of an element on the periodic table can be determined by the number of valence electrons in an atom.
Explanation of Solution
The location of an element on the periodic table with respect to its group member can be determined by the number of valence electrons in an atom. Group 1 has one valence electron; Group 2 has two valence electrons. Similarly, Group 13 has three and Group 18 has eight valence electrons.
The number of valence electrons in an atom helps in predicting the location of an element on the periodic table.

- (a) Show that the lattice energies are inversely proportional to the distance between ions in MX (M = alkali metal, X = halide ions) by plotting the lattice energies of KF, KCl, and KI against the internuclear distances, dMX. The lattice energies of KF, KCl, and KI are 826, 717, and 645 kJ/mol, respectively. Does the correlation obtained correlate well? You will need to use a standard graphing program to construct the graph (such as a spreadsheet program). It will generate an equation for the line and calculate a correlation coefficient. (b) Estimate the lattice energy of KBr from your graph. (c) Find an experimental value for the lattice energy of KBr in the literature, and compare this value with the one calculated in (b).
