What two types of forces are involved in the process of calculating lattice enthalpy?
Options
- AGravitational forces and magnetic forces
- BAttractive forces between ions of opposite charges and repulsive forces between ions of like charge
- CCovalent forces and metallic forces
- DElectromagnetic forces and nuclear forces
Correct answer
B. Attractive forces between ions of opposite charges and repulsive forces between ions of like charge
Step-by-step solution
The process of calculating lattice enthalpy involves both attractive forces between ions of opposite charges and repulsive forces between ions of like charge.
