This document describes the Born-Haber cycle process for calculating the lattice energy of sodium chloride. It shows the step-by-step reactions involved in atomizing the elements, ionizing them, and forming the ionic solid. By applying Hess's law to the cycle, the lattice energy can be determined by subtracting the sum of other enthalpy changes from the enthalpy of formation.

Born-Haber Cycles
eg for sodium chloride: enthalpy H Na+(g)+ Cl(g) + eH H
first ionisation energy
first electron affinity
Na (g) + Cl (g) atomisation
Na+ (g) + Cl- (g)
Na (g) + Cl2 (g) H atomisation Na (s) + Cl2 (g) H
formation
H lattice association
NaCl (s)
Born-Haber Cycles : applying Hesss Law
There are two routes from elements to ionic compound enthalpy H Na+ (g) + Cl (g) H H first ionisation energy
HatmNa + HatmCl + H1st IE + H1st EA + Hlattice = Hformation Rearrange to find the lattice energy: Hlattice = Hformation - (HatmNa + HatmCl + H1st IE + H1st EA) So Born-Haber cycles can be used to calculate a measure of ionic bond strength based on experimental data.
