98. Describe, with appropriate explanations, the key factors which affect the magnitude of the lattice energy of an ionic
substance.
By Coulomb's law, the energy of two electrical charges is proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional
to the distance separating them. If one approximates the lattice energy by considering only nearest neighbor interactions, the
energy will be proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to their separation. Thus a lattice consisting
of small ions with multiple charges will have the greatest (negative) lattice energy.

atoms.
Take the electronegativity difference (ΔEN) of the bonded atoms. The larger the difference between their electronegativities, the
more ionic will be the nature of the bond. If ΔEN = 0, the bond will be pure covalent.
