Arrange the following in increasing lattice energy: $L i_{2} C O_{3}, N a_{2} C O_{3}, K_{2} C O_{3}$ .

Open in App

Solution

The increasing order of lattice energy is $L i_{2} C O_{3} < N a_{2} C O_{3} < K_{2} C O_{3}$ . With increase in the size of alkali metal on moving down the group, the lattice energy increases.
