Comparing Lattice Enthalpies How accurate are lattice enthalpies? It is possible to calculate a theoretical value for the lattice enthalpy of an ionic solid. To do this you need to know the ...
Calculations Using Born-Haber Cycles Once a Born-Haber cycle has been constructed, it is possible to calculate the lattice energy (ΔHlattꝋ) by applying Hess’s law and rearranging: ΔHfꝋ = ΔHa...
Constructing Born-Haber Cycles A Born-Haber cycle is a specific application of Hess's Law for ionic compounds and enable us to calculate lattice enthalpy which cannot be found by experiment ...
