The Born-Haber Cycle By Brian M. Lawrence, Ph.D. Chemistry 111/112 Lecture Slides Morehouse College Consider the strongly exothermic reaction between sodium metal and chlorine gas… 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) 2NaCl (s) What can we learn about attractive forces between ions from this relationship? Specifically, how much energy is tied to the attraction of sodium cations to chloride anions? Recall that for state functions ( G, H or S) there is no path dependence. Imagine, then, the following. 2Na(g) Ionization – 2eEnergy 2Cl(g) 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) 2Na+ (g) Electron + 2eAffinity 2Cl-(g) 2NaCl (s) This hypothetical pathway is call the Born-Haber Cycle. It is a useful construct for estimating coulombic attraction between atoms in compounds. 2Na(g) Ionization Energy 2Na+ (g) H°coul H°subl 2Cl(g) Electron Affinity 2Cl-(g) BDE 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) H°rxn 2NaCl (s) Using the Born-Haber Cycle in this way, we can determine a reasonable estimate for the coulombic attraction between the atoms in almost any ionic compound. The standard thermodynamic parameters needed to do this can be found in your textbook. H°rxn = H°subl + BDE + IE – EA + BDE = Bond Dissociation Enthalpy IE = Ionization Energy EA = Electron Affinity H°coul
