Question

Discuss the Born-Haber cycle for the formation of a hypothetical compound LiCl3.

Answer 1

The Born–Haber cycle is an approach to analyze reaction energies. ... The lattice enthalpy is the enthalpy change involved in the formation of an ionic compound from gaseous ions (an exothermic process), or sometimes defined as the energy to break the ionic compound into gaseous ions (an endothermic process).
