Use the following data and the Born-Haber cycle to calculate the first ionization energy (ΔH IE1) of K(g) K(s) → K(g) 89 kJ mol-1 Cl(g) + e– → Cl–(g) -349 kJ mol-1 K(s) + ½ Cl2(g) → KCl(s) -437 kJ mol-1 K(g) → K+(g) + e– ΔH IE1 Cl2(g) → 2Cl(g) 244 kJ mol-1 K+(g) + Cl–(g) → KCl(s) -717 kJ mol-1
Bond Parameters
Many factors decide the covalent bonding between atoms. Some of the bond parameters are bond angle, bond order, enthalpy, bond length, etc. These parameters decide what kind of bond will form in atoms. Hence it is crucial to understand these parameters in detail and understand how changing these parameters affects the kind of bonding or various characteristics.
Bond Dissociation Energy
The tendency of an atom to attract an electron is known as its electronegativity.
