Question: Draw the Born-Haber cycle and use the data below for the formation of calcium chloride, to calculate the electron affinity of chlorine: Ca (s) Ca

Draw the Born-Haber cycle and use the data below for the formation of calcium chloride, to calculate the electron affinity of chlorine:

Ca(s) Ca(g) DHat = +190 kJ/mol

Ca(g) Ca2+(g) + 2e- DHIE = +1730 kJ/mol

Cl2(g) 2Cl(g) DHat = +121 kJ/mol

Ca2+(g) + 2Cl-(g) CaCl2(s) DHLE = -2184 kJ/mol

Ca(s) + Cl2(g) CaCl2(s) DHF = -795 kJ/mol
