All of the following steps are used to calculate the lattice energy in the Born-Haber cycle EXCEPT:

Correct answer: C. Deionize the metal

  • A. Atomizing the metal
  • B. lonizing the metal
  • C. Deionize the metal
  • D. lonize non metal

Explanation

Deionizing metal is not part of the Born-Haber cycle. It would involve turning ions back into atoms, which is not necessary for calculating lattice energy.
