Question
  1. MA, MD, ME, and MG are ionic compounds in which M is a metal. A, D, E, and G are monovalent non-metals of the same Group in the Periodic Table. The order of atomic numbers for these elements is E > D > G > A. With which one of the following, the metal has the most exothermic value of lattice energy?

 

  1. ☐A
  2. ☐D
  3. ☐E
  4. ☐G
  5. ☐The value is the same for all.
Expert Solution
Introduction

The amount of energy that gets released when two ions combine with each-other to form a compound. It is inversely proportional to the radius of the ions. More the radius,lesser will be the attraction and hence,lesser will be the energy released.
