Chapter 21, Problem 21.55E

The lattice energy for potassium iodide, KI , is 627 .2 kJ / mol . If the ionic separation is 3 .533 A , what is the repulsive range parameter ρ for KI ? You will have to determine which Madelung constant to use.

KCl has a lattice energy of −701 kJ/mol. Consider a generic salt, AB, where A2+ has the same radius as K + and B 2- has the same radius as Xl -. Estimate the lattice energy of the salt AB.
In 1998 scientists using a special type of electron microscope were able to measure the force needed to break a single chemical bond. If 2.0 x 10-9 N was needed to break a C – Si bond, estimate the bond enthalpy in kJ/mol. Assume that the bond had to be stretched by a distance of 2 x 10-10 m before it is broken.
Use the following data to calculate the lattice energy of cesium oxide. You must write all thermochemical equations for the steps of the cycle. Enthalpy of formation of CSO = -233 kJ/mol Enthalpy of sublimation of Cs = +78 kJ/mol First ionization energy of Cs = +375 kJ/mol Enthalpy of dissociation of O₂ (g) = + 494 kJ/mol First electron affinity of O = - 141 kJ/mol Second electron affinity of O = + 845 kJ/mol -750 kJ/mol -2090 kJ/mol +1690 kJ/mol O -1045 kJ/mol
