Chapter 21, Problem 21.53E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The lattice energy of KCl is to be predicted. The answer is to be compared with the experimental value in Table 21.5.

Concept introduction:

The amount of energy released when one formula unit moles of oppositely charged gaseous ions binds together to form a crystal is known as the Lattice energy. The value of lattice energy is negative. It is used as the measure for stability of a crystal.

Calculate the lattice energy of TIF (s) using the following thermodynamic data (all data is in kJ/mol). Note that the data given has been perturbed, so looking up the answer is probably not a good idea. TI (S) TI (g) F - F (g) F (g) TIF (s) AHsublimation = 161 kJ/mol Ionization energy = 569 kJ/mol Bond energy = 138 kJ/mol Electron affinity = -348 kJ/mol AH°f = -345 kJ/mol kJ/mol
The ionisation energy of potassium is 4.34 eV and the electron affinity of chlorine is 3.61 eV.  The Madelung constant for the KCl structure is 1.748 and the closest distance between ions of opposite sign is 0.314 nm.  On the basis of these data, calculate the cohesive energy of KCl. Compare this with the observed cohesive energy of 6.42 eV for the ion pair and comment on the reasons for any discrepancy
