Use the following data to calculate ΔlatticH⊖ for NaBr. ΔsubH⊖ for sodium metal = 108.4 kJ mol−1, ionisation enthalpy of sodium = 496 kJ mol−1, electron gain enthalpy of bromine = -325 kJ mol−1, bond dissociation enthalpy of bromine = 192 kJ mol−1, ΔfH⊖ for NaBr(s) = -360. 1 kJ mol−1
Given that,ΔsubH⊖ for Na metal = 108.4 k J mol−1
IE of Na= 496 kJ mol−1, ΔegH⊖ of Br = - 325 kJ mol−1, ΔdissH⊖ of Br= 192 kJ mol−1, ΔfH⊖ for NaBr = - 360.1 kJ mol−1
Born-Haber cycle for the formation of NaBr is as
By applying Hess's law,
ΔfH⊖=ΔsubH⊖+IE+ΔdissH⊖+ΔegH⊖+U
-360.1 = 108.4 + 496 + 96 + (-325)-U
U=+735.5kJ mol−1
