Given data:

Sublimation of K

K(s) ↔ K(g)                            ΔH(sub) = 89.0 kj/mol

Ionization energy for K

K(s) → K⁺ + e⁻                         IE(K) = 419 Kj/mol

Electron affinity for Cl

Cl(g) + e⁻ → Cl⁻                      EA(Cl) = -349 kj/mol

Bond energy for Cl₂

1/2Cl₂ (g) → Cl                        Bond energy = 243/2 = 121.5 kj/mol

Formation of KCl

K(s) + 1/2Cl₂(g) → KCl(s)        ΔHf = -436.5 kJ/mol

To determine:

Lattice energy of KCl

K⁺(g) + Cl⁻(g) → KCl (s)                   U(KCl) = ?

Explanation:

The enthalpy of formation of KCl can be expressed in terms of the sum of all the above processes, i.e.

ΔHf(KCl) = U(KCl) + ΔH(sub) + IE(K) + 1/2 BE(Cl₂) + EA(Cl)

therefore:

U(KCl) = ΔHf(KCl) - [ΔH(sub) + IE(K) + 1/2 BE(Cl₂) + EA(Cl)]

         = -436.5 - [89 + 419 + 243/2 -349] = -717 kJ/mol

Ans: the lattice energy of KCl = -717 kj/mol



The Lattice energy of KCl is  -717 kJ/mol.

Given Here,

Enthalpy of sublimation of Potassium [tex]\rm \bold{ \Delta H(sub ) }[/tex] =  89.0 kJ/mol

Ionization Energy for Potassium  IE(K) = 419 kJ/mol

Electron affinity for Chlorine is EA(Cl) =  −349 kJ/mol

Bond energy of Chlorine, BE(Cl) = 243 kJ/mol

Enthalpy of formation for KCl,  [tex]\rm \bold{ \Delta H(f) }[/tex] = −436.5 kj/mol .

The Lattice energy of KCl can be calculated from the formula

[tex]\rm \bold {U(KCl) = \Delta Hf(KCl) - [ \Delta H(sub) + IE(K) + \frac{1}{2}BE(Cl_2) + EA(Cl)]}[/tex]

U( KCl)  = -436.5 - [89 + 419 + 243/2 -349]

U( KCl)  = -717 kJ/mol

Hence we can calculate that the Lattice energy of KCl is  -717 kJ/mol.
