4. THERE ARE TWO DEFINITIONS OF LATTICE ENTHALPY 1. Lattice Formation Enthalpy ‘The enthalpy change when ONE MOLE of an ionic lattice is formed from its isolated gaseous ions.’ Example Na + (g) + Cl¯(g) Na + Cl¯(s) Lattice Enthalpy Definition(s) 2. Lattice Dissociation Enthalpy ‘The enthalpy change when ONE MOLE of an ionic lattice dissociates into isolated gaseous ions.’ Example Na + Cl¯(s) Na + (g) + Cl¯(g) MAKE SURE YOU CHECK WHICH IS BEING USED

5. 1. Lattice Formation Enthalpy ‘The enthalpy change when ONE MOLE of an ionic lattice is formed from its isolated gaseous ions.’ EXOTHERMIC Values highly EXOTHERMIC strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions a lot of energy is released as the bond is formed relative values are governed by the charge density of the ions. Example Na + (g) + Cl¯(g) Na + Cl¯(s) Lattice Enthalpy Definition(s) NaCl(s) Na + (g) + Cl – (g)

6. Lattice Enthalpy Definition(s) 2. Lattice Dissociation Enthalpy ‘The enthalpy change when ONE MOLE of an ionic lattice dissociates into isolated gaseous ions.’ ENDOTHERMIC Values highly ENDOTHERMIC strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions a lot of energy must be put in to overcome the attraction relative values are governed by the charge density of the ions. Example Na + Cl¯(s) Na + (g) + Cl¯(g) NaCl(s) Na + (g) + Cl – (g)

They will have larger Lattice Enthalpies and larger melting points because of the extra energy which must be put in to separate the oppositely charged ions. Units: kJ mol -1

They will have larger Lattice Enthalpies and larger melting points because of the extra energy which must be put in to separate the oppositely charged ions. Cl¯Cl¯ Na + Cl¯Cl¯ The sodium ion has the same charge as a potassium ion but is smaller. It has a higher charge density so will have a more effective attraction for the chloride ion. More energy will be released when they come together. K+K+
