Consider the lattice energy of any ionic compound. what combination of ions and charges will produce the largest (in magnitude) lattice energies? a. small ions and small charges b. large ions and large charges c. small ions and large charges d. large ions and small charges

c. small ions and large charges

Explanation:

The lattice energy is a consequence of the electrostatic interaction between the ions. Coulomb force, is the force that drives this electrostatic interaction and is defined by the equation below:

Q1 and Q2 are the charges of the ions and r is the distance between them. This means the the higher the charges and the smaller the distance (ionic radius), the stronger the force between ions and, therefore, the larger the lattice energy.

indicate valleys, hills, steepness and gentleness of slopes.

explanation:

contour lines on a map indicate elevation, or depth. numeric notations on contour lines refer to the level of elevation, or height about sea level.

the answer to this question is 3.
