Problem 110AP

The interlunio distances of several alkali halide crystals are as follows:

Crystal

NaCl

NaBr

NaI

KCl

KBr

KI

Interionic

282

299

324

315

330

353

Distance(pm)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plot lattice energy versus the reciprocal interionic distance. How would you explain the plot in terms of the dependence of lattice energy on the distance of separation between ions? What law governs this interaction? (For lattice energies, sec Table 8.1.)
