Giant Lattices (20-U3)
Giant molecular
-
Physical properties
-
Hard, strong and non-malleable
-
-
Giant Metallic
Electrostatic forces of attraction between metal cations and sea of delocalised electrons in 3D array
-
-
-
Giant Ionic
Electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions arranged in a fixed, orderly manner in giant ionic lattice
-
Bond strength measured by lattice energy
LE of an ionic crystal is the energy evolved when 1 mol of the solid ionic compd is formed from its constituent gaseous ions.
Larger |LE|, stronger ionic bond
