Lattice energy is directly related to the size of the ions bonded. Smaller ions generally have a more negative value for lattice energy because the nucleus is closer to and thus has more attraction for the valence electrons.

What is lattice point?
Each lattice point represents the position where one constituent particle of the solid which may be a atom, ion or molecule may exist It may not be only ion or molecule always A lattice is a synonym for "frame work" for a crystalline structure
What is the lattice energy from Chemistry perspective?
When a salt, such as NaCl dissolves in water, the crystals disappear on the macroscopic scale. On the atomic scale, the Na+ and Cl- ions in the crystal are released into solution.NaCl(s) H2O Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)The lattice energy of a salt therefore gives a rough indication of the solubility of the salt in water because it reflects the energy needed to separate the positive and negative ions in a salt.It also tells how stronger the ion is.
Why NH4 plus ion does not form complexes?
Proton spin lattice relaxation by NH4+ ion motions and spin diffusion in some ammonium compounds
What are the differences between the Frenkel and Schottky defects?
A Schottky defect is when 2 oppositely charged ions leave their normal lattice positions forming 2 vacancies in the lattice structure. This contrasts to a Frenkel defect, where 1 ion simple moves from it's normal lattice position to an interstitial site (tetrahedral/octahedral hole).
Difference between ion pump and channel?
An ion channel is a passive transport and does not require energy for it to occur. An ion pump, meanwhile, is an active transport and requires an input of energy for it begin.
Lattice energy is effected by all the following factors except what charge of ion size of ion or number of electrons shared in the chemical bond?
Ionic Charge and Ionic Radius - the smaller the radius the greater the lattice energy. The charge of the ions is what affects the lattice energy.
How does lattice energy change with a change in the size of an ion?
Because the electrostatic force of attraction between opposite charges increases as the distance between the charges decreases, smaller ions produce stronger inter ionic attractions and greater lattice energies. When attraction between ions increases and the charge of the ion increases , the lattice energy increases. Down the groups in periods the lattice energy decreases
What is the relation between lattice energy and charge density of ion?
The small sized ion with high charge has the high charge density and high attractive force towards opposite ion therefore strong bonds are formed and such ionic compound shows the high lattice energy.
Calculate the energy released in the formation of one mole of bonds not lattice energy The radius of the magnesium ion is 1.60 and the radius of the selenide ion is 1.26 Note that?
-1950 kj/mole
What is the equation of heat of hydration?
Heat of hydration or enthalpy of hydration of ions corresponds to the heat that is released by hydration of one mole of ions at a constant pressure. The more the ion is hydrated, the more heat is released. Degree of hydration depends on the size and charge of ion. The smaller the ion and the greater its charge, it will be the more hydrated.

What element has the smallest first ionization energy of Li Na Rb and K?
Rb
Why does NaCl have a high melting point than KCl?
This can be rationalised by looking at the lattice energy. Using Madelungs method the smaller Na+ ion causes a stronger coulombic attraction making it harder to beak up the lattice and increasing the mp.
What arrangement of ion in sodium chloride shows that each ion is surrounded by what oppositely-charged ions?
lattice
A crystal lattice is made of?
Unit cells and ion's, atoms, or molecules
Do large ions tend to produce a more negative value for lattice energy than smaller ions do?
Okay to be honest, I'm not entirely sure, but I think its false because the larger the positive or negative charge of the ion, the greater lattice energy it has.According to the answers of similar questions, I think it's true.
Why dissolution of NaCl in water is a physical change not a chemical change?
It has been argued whether this is a chemical or physical change. It can be viewed as a chemical change since the Na ion and Cl ion are separated from the crystal lattice, and then become hydrated by water molecules, thus changing the actual chemical structure. However, this is a REVERSIBLE chemical change. Thus, if you evaporate the water, you end up with the same crystalline structure (lattice) that you began with, and so it may now be viewed as simply a physical change. There is no consensus as to which is correct, IMHO.
