Alkali metal salts ionic and soluble in water. The solubility of an ionic compound depends on (i) lattic ethalpy and (ii) hydration enthalpy. These two factor oppose each other. If hydration ethalpy is high, the ions will have greater tendency to be hydrated and therefore the solubility will be high. The smaller the cation, the greater is the degree of hydration. The reducing behaviour of alkali metals in solution is also dependent on the hydration enthalpy besides other factors. The hydration energy is maximum for

The lattice enthalpy of an ionic compound is the enthalpy when one mole of an ionic compoud present in its gaseous state, dissociates into its ions. It is impossible to determine it directly by experiment. Suggest and explain in indirect method to measure lattice enthalpy of NaCl(s).

When an ionic compound is dissolved in water (polar solvent), it breaks up into its constituent ions. The given ionic compound will be dissolved in water if its hydration energy is more than lattice energy . IF hydration energy is less than lattice energy then ionic compound is usually either sparingly soluble or insoluble in water.
