8장, 문제 30a

(a) Based on the lattice energies of MgCl2 and SrCl2 given in Table 8.1, what is the range of values that you would expect for the lattice energy of CaCl2?

검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the lattice energies of MgCl2 and SrCl2 from Table 8.1.

Understand that lattice energy is influenced by the size and charge of the ions involved.

Recognize that CaCl2 is between MgCl2 and SrCl2 in terms of ionic size, as calcium is between magnesium and strontium in the periodic table.

Use the trend in lattice energies from MgCl2 to SrCl2 to estimate the range for CaCl2, considering that smaller ions typically result in higher lattice energies.

Conclude that the lattice energy of CaCl2 should fall between the lattice energies of MgCl2 and SrCl2, based on the periodic trend and ionic sizes.

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Lattice Energy

Lattice energy is the amount of energy released when gaseous ions combine to form an ionic solid. It is a measure of the strength of the forces between the ions in an ionic compound. Higher lattice energy indicates stronger ionic bonds, which typically results in higher melting points and greater stability of the compound.

Trends in Lattice Energy

Lattice energy varies with the charge and size of the ions involved. Generally, as the charge of the ions increases, the lattice energy increases due to stronger electrostatic forces. Conversely, larger ions result in lower lattice energy because the distance between the ions increases, weakening the attraction.

Comparative Analysis

To estimate the lattice energy of CaCl2, one can compare it to the known lattice energies of MgCl2 and SrCl2. Since calcium (Ca) is positioned between magnesium (Mg) and strontium (Sr) in the periodic table, its lattice energy is expected to fall within the range defined by these two compounds, reflecting its ionic size and charge.
