Define lattice energy . how is it correlated with the stability of ionic crystal ?

Answer»

bility of an IONIC solid is measured in TERMS of its lattice energy (U0). It is defined as theenergy RELEASED when on mole of anionic crystal is formed from one mole of gaseous positive and one mole of gaseous negative ions, when these are separated from each other by infinite distance.
