The electron transport chain (ETC) is a critical process in cellular respiration and photosynthesis, involving the transfer of electrons and protons through a series of protein complexes and molecules to create an electrochemical gradient, ultimately producing ATP with molecular oxygen as the final electron acceptor.
Lattice Energy: Always Positive; Hydration Energy: Always Negative

full solution
In this video we clarify why lattice energy in solids is always a positive value due to the energy needed to separate ions making it an endothermic process. On the flip side hydration energy is always negative as it releases heat when ions dissolve in water making it an exothermic reaction. We use sodium chloride as a real-world example to illustrate these crucial thermodynamic concepts
