Lattice Energy is the estimate for the strength of ionic bonds.
Lattice Energy
Lattice Formation Energy involves an exothermic process where energy is released when gaseous ions combine into ionic solid.
Lattice Energy Example 1
Lattice Energy
Lattice Dissociation Energy involves an endothermic process where energy is absorbed when ionic solid is broken up into gaseous ions.

Lattice Energy
Lattice Energy Example 3
The lattice energy for ionic crystals decreases as the charge of the ions _____ and the size of the ions _____.
a) Increases, increases
b) Increases, decreases
c) Decreases, increases
d) Decreases, decreases
Lattice Energy
Larger Lattice Energy causes ionic bonds to be stronger. This in turn causes higher boiling and melting points, but lower solubility.
