Which ranks the compounds from lowest to highest lattice energy?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lattice energy increases with the charge of the ions and decreases as the size of the ions increases. KF has the largest ions with a +1 and -1 charge, thus the lowest lattice energy, while MgF2 has smaller ions with a +2 and -1 charge, thus the highest lattice energy. NaF and CaF2 fall in between these extremes, with CaF2 having a higher lattice energy than NaF due to the +2 charge of Ca compared to the +1 charge of Na, despite Ca being larger than Na.
