Consider the Born-Haber cycle for the formation of an ionic compound, given below and identify the compound (Z) forme(d)
Options
- AM⁺ X⁻
- BM⁻ X⁻(s)
- CM X
- DM⁺ X⁻(g)
Correct answer
A. M⁺ X⁻
Step-by-step solution
The ionic compound formed is M⁺ X⁻(s) as the gaseous ions [M⁺(g) . and . Cl ⁻(g) ] combines in the crystal lattice which is in solid state.
