Question:

Cryptands such as crypt-[222] (see Fig. 11.9) are encapsulating ligands for s-block metal ions. Use the VBT approach to estimate values for the lattice energies of KMnO4 and [K(crypt-[222])][MnO4]. Comment on difference between the values. Data: see Tables 6.5 and 6.6; V(K(crypt-[222])+) = 0:531 nm3.
