4. Lithium chloride is formed from lithium and chlorine. Its lattice energy may be
calculated from a Born-Haber cycle using the following experimental data.
First ionization energy of lithium = +520 kJ mol-1
Heat to convert Li (s) to Li (g) = +159 kJ mol-1
Heat of formation of lithium chloride = -409 kJ mol-1
Heat to convert Cl2(g) to Cl(g) = +122 kJ mol-1
Electron affinity of chlorine atoms = -349 kJ mol-1
(a) Using the usual chemical symbols, the state symbols (s), (l), (g) and the symbol
for an electron, e-, write an equation in each case to define the following terms.
(b) Construct a labelled Born-Haber cycle for the formation of lithium chloride.
(c) Using the constructed Born-Haber cycle, or any other method, calculate the
lattice energy of lithium chloride.
