Doubt by Nimish

In LiCl,Li2O ,LiF ,which has highest lattice energy .why not Li2O has highest  lattice energy?

Answers

Answer by NJ

lattice energy of the Li2O is given below.

LiF (-1045 kJ/ mole)

LiCl (-864 kJ/mole)

Now you on yourself  decide that which compound has highest energy.

thank you.

 

Answer by Subash Chandra Tripathy

We give more priority to charge than the size .

Hence, in li2o ,q1q2=2 but in lif q1q2= 1 ... 

So, li2o should have higher lattice energy but it's not . Why so ?
