Consider the Born-Haber cycle for the formation of an ionic compound given below and identify the compound ( ) formed. [ array l M ( s ) H ₁ M ( g ) H ₂ M ⁺( g ) 1 2 X ₂( ~g ) H ₃ X ( g ) H ₄ X ⁻( g ) array ] H ₅ Z
Options
- AM ⁺ X ⁻
- BM ⁺ X ⁻( s )
- CMX
- DM ⁺ X ⁻( g )
Correct answer
B. M ⁺ X ⁻( s )
Step-by-step solution
The Born-Haber cycle takes place as follows Hence, Z is M ⁺ X ⁻ (s).
