The lattice energy order for lithium halide is

The lattice energy order for lithium halide is

Options

(a) LiF > liCl > LiBr > LiI
(b) LiCl > LiF > LiBr > LiI
(c) LiBr > LiCl > LiF > LiI
(d) LII > LiBr > LiCl > LiF

Correct Answer:

Lif > LiCl > LiBr > LiI

Explanation:

Smaller in size of anion, lesser is its polarisation, more is ionic nature, more is lattice energy.
