### Lattice enthalpy ### Lattice enthalpy
The lattice enthalpy of an ionic compound is the **magnitude** of the energy released when 1 mol of an ionic solid is formed from gaseous ions. The lattice enthalpy of an ionic compound is the energy required to dissociate 1 mol of an ionic solid to its gaseous ions.
- It decreases as ionic radius increases due to greater distance and charge separation - It decreases as ionic radius increases due to greater distance and charge separation
- It increases as difference in charge increases because the greater charges are more strongly attracted - It increases as difference in charge increases because the greater charges are more strongly attracted
