MCQ
Lattice energy of an ionic compound depends upon
- ACharge on the ion only
- BSize of the ion only
- CPacking of ions only
- ✓Charge on the ion and size of the ion
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Charge on the ion and size of the ion
(d) The value of lattice energy depends on the charges present on the two ions and distance between them. It shell be high if charges are high and ionic radii are small.
