Solved: Lattice energies can also be calculated for covalent solids using a Born-Haber
Chapter 9, Problem 9.88(choose chapter or problem)
Lattice energies can also be calculated for covalent solids using a Born-Haber cycle, and the network solid silicon dioxide has one of the highest _H_lattice values. Silicon dioxide is found in pure crystalline form as transparent rock quartz. Much harder than glass, this material was once prized for making lenses for optical devices and expensive spectacles. Use Appendix B and the following data to calculate _Hlattice of SiO2:
