(2) (3) 18 This question is about lithium iodide, an ionic salt. (a) Draw dot and cross diagrams for the lithium and iodide ions. Show all the electrons in the lithium ion but only outer shell electrons in the iodide ion. (b) On the Born-Haber cycle below, fill in the missing formulae (including state symbols) and the missing enthalpy change. Hlat[LiI(s)]+LiI(s) Em1[Li(g)] Eaff1[I(g)] Li(g)Hf[LiI(s)] Hat[Li(s)]+*P41212A01324* 13 Turn over<br />
 (c) Calculate the electron affinity of iodine, Eaff1[I(g)], using the data below. Lattice energy for lithium iodide, Hlat Enthalpy change of atomization of lithium, Hat Enthalpy change of atomization of iodine, Hat First ionization energy of lithium, Em1 Enthalpy change of formation of lithium iodide, Hf H/kJ mol1 759 +159 +107 +520 270 (d) The experimental lattice energy for lithium iodide is 759 kJ mol1. The theoretical lattice energy is different from this value. Will the experimental lattice energy be more negative or less negative than the theoretical lattice energy? Justify your answer.
