← ScienceWhich consequence occurs due to disrupted lattice formation in sodium chloride?
A)Reduced electrostatic attraction strength✓
B)Increased London force magnitudes
C)Enhanced covalent character dominance
D)Limited electron mobility improvements
💡 Explanation
Disrupted lattice formation reduces the proximity between Na+ and Cl- ions impairing electrostatic attraction. This is Coulomb's Law because the decreased proximity diminishes force; therefore, attraction is reduced, rather than any van der Waals force increases or covalent bonding enhancements impacting the structure.
