Consequences of lattice enthalpies Thermal stabilities of ionic solid Lattice energy of MgCO 3 more than BaCO 3 . MCO 3(s ) MO (s) +CO 2(g) Standard enthalpy of decomposition is given by ΔH decomposition = ΔH decomposition of carbonate + ΔH L {MCO 3 (s) } - ΔH L { MO (s) } Lattice energy down the group decreases due to increase in interionic radius Formation of MgO is favoured over BaO as MgO has higher lattice energy than BaO . Change inter-ionic distance after decomposition is more significant for MgCO 3 Therefore decomposition will be favoured if ΔH L MO (s) more

Stability of oxidation state
Why IF 7 and no IBr 7 Reaction is strongly spontaneous for X = F than other halogens Despite F has lower E. A. f ormation of formation of X - is more exothermic for F than Cl As cation increases the charge lattice energy increases however with increase in anion size this effect will decrease. As Iodine is having more radius this effect will be maximum for I. Δ H L ∝
