Calculate the lattice energy of magnesium sulfide from the data given below. Mg(s) → Mg(g) ΔH° = 148 kJ/mol
Mg(g) → Mg2+(g) + 2e- ΔH° = 2186 kJ/mol
S8(s) → 8S(g) ΔH° = 2232 kJ/mol
S(g) + 2e- → S2-(g) ΔH° = 450 kJ/mol
8Mg(s) + S8(s) → 8MgS(s) ΔH° = -2744 kJ/mol
Mg2+(g) + S2-(g) → MgS(s) ΔH°lattice = ?
A) -3406 kJ/mol
B) -2720. kJ/mol
C) 2720. kJ/mol
D) 3406 kJ/mol
