Question #71167

6) There is Something called the lattice Energy.Is that the energy needed to break the ionic bound between, in this case Mg2+...O ? in a mgso4 dissolved in distilled water?
7) How do I calculate how much energy i need to break all the Mg2+....O bounds in a 100 ml solution of Mgso4, at 20 degrees.
8) Would the calculation in 7) be different if i used mgso4*7h20 or mgso4*6h20 in the saturated solution.

Thanks, yes. But a followup question is this. I also read that the lattis energy It is the energy released when one mole of an ionic compound is formed, how can it be both this and also the amount of energy it takes to break the ionic bound and get each component into a gas form. Because the starting point was Mgso4, not a gas form. What am i missing in my thinking ?
