Solution

The correct option is A Lattice energy U=S+I+D2EQ
An estimate of the strength of the bonds in an ionic compound can be obtained by measuring the lattice energy of the compound, which is the energy given off when oppositely charged ions in the gas phase come together to form a solid.

The Lattice energy of NaCl from its elements Sodium and Chlorine in their stable forms is modeled in five steps in the diagram:

  1. Enthalpy change of atomization enthalpy of lithium
  2. Ionization enthalpy of lithium
  3. Atomization enthalpy of fluorine
  4. Electron affinity of fluorine
  5. Lattice enthalpy
U=S+I+D2EQ
