Solution
The correct option is B LiF Lattice energy directly proportional to charges and inversely proportional to distance…… as all these compounds has 1 : 1 charge and common ion F so lattice energy will decrease as the M – F bond length increases so LiF will have highest lattice energy because the distance between Li and F is shortest.
