- Lattice Enthalpys
- There are two main things which effect lattice enthalpys
- 1) Charge has the biggest effect on the lattice enthalpy
- The greater the charge- the greater the lattice enthalpy
- 2) Size- The smaller the ion, the closer it can get so there's a greater attraction and therefore a higher lattice enthalpy
- E.g. LiF = larger lattice enthalpy than LiCl
