MCQ
The stability of ionic crystal principally depends on
- Ahigh electron affinity of anion forming species
- ✓the lattice energy of crystal
- Clow $I.E.$ of cation forming species
- Dlow heat of sublimation of cation forming solid
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
the lattice energy of crystal
b
Stability of ionic crystal depends on lattice energy which is released in the form of heat when two ions are brought together to form a solid. Lattice energy is sum of all the interactions within the crystal.
