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.

the lattice energy of CaC2(s) is -2911 kJ/mol. calculate a value for the thermochemical radius of the carbide ion, C2^2-.
Calculate the energy needed to dissociate 1.00 mol of crystalline RbCl into its gaseous ions if the Madelung constant for its structure is 1.7476 and the radii of Rb1 and Cl- are 1.48 Å and 1.81 Å, respectively. Assume that the repulsive energy reduces the lattice energy by 10% from the pure Coulomb energy
