Problem 12 : Explain the concept of lattice energy in ionic compounds. How does lattice energy affect the stability of ionic compounds?
Solution :

Lattice energy is the energy required to separate the ions in an ionic compound. It depends on the charges of the ions and the distance between them. A higher charge on the ions or a smaller ionic radius leads to greater lattice energy.
