Born-Haber Cycles (A-Level Chemistry)

Outlining Born-Haber cycles and how to use Born-Haber cycles to find standard lattice enthalpies of formation and dissociation. Example of sodium chloride lattice enthalpy of formation is used.

Born-Haber cycle steps for ions with a charge greater than 1+ and 1- are shown.

The differences between theoretical lattice enthalpies of formation values and experimental values found using Born-Haber cycles are explained.

Hi i wanted to thank you for this amazing explanation! Really cleared the topic for me, just a request- it'd be awesome if you showed the working and process of further additions examples like Alcl3 and the oxides in details. Thanks again.
