Question

For the ionic compound MX, made up of generic metal M and Generic, gaseous halogen X, the steps of the born-haber cycle are shown here. Write the overall reaction, and identify the name of the enthalpy change for each reaction.

Reaction Enthalpy

What is the enthalpy of each reactions? the choices to match with each reaction are 1/2 bond energy of X-X, Enthalpy of formation of MX, Ionization energy, eletron affinity, lattice energy, bond energy of X-X, -lattice energy, enthalpy of sublimation

For the ionic compound MX, made up of generic metal M and Generic, gaseous halogen X, the steps of the born-haber cycle are shown here. Write the overall reaction, and identify the name of the enthalpy change for each reaction. Reaction Enthalpy 1. M+(g) + X-(g) MX(s) = What is the enthalpy of each reactions? the choices to match with each reaction are 1/2 bond energy of X-X, Enthalpy of formation of MX, Ionization energy, eletron affinity, lattice energy, bond energy of X-X, -lattice energy, enthalpy of sublimation = 5. = 4. = 3. 2.

Explanation / Answer

Overall reaction is :-

M(s) + (1/2)*X2(g) -------------> MX(s)

Now, M(s) ------> M(g) ; +ve enthalpy & endothermic reaction

(1/2)*X2(g) -------> X(g) ; +ve enthalpy & endothermic reaction

M(g) --------> M+(g) + e- ; +ve enthalpy & endothermic reaction

X(g) + e- ------> X-(g) ; -ve enthalpy & exothermic reaction

Enthalpy of overall reaction = (1/2)*bond energy of X-X + Ionization energy + enthalpy of sublimation - electron affinity - lattice enthalpy

Note, only numerical values of enrgy are to be put in the formula of the enthaly of the overall reaction to get the right result
