The result of its calculations can be applied to elements in the gaseous phase to calculate electron-gain enthalpy. Its steps
The result of its calculations can be applied to elements in the gaseous phase to calculate electron-gain enthalpy. Its steps include atomization of the metal, atomization of the nonmetal, ionization of the metal, ionization of the nonmetal, and formation of the ionic solids, which allows for the sum of a series of enthalpies. This sum can be equated with the standard enthalpy of formation of the observed ionic solid to give the result. FTP, give this cycle used for calculating the lattice energies of ionic crystal solids, which is named for its two discoverers.
