← ScienceWhich consequence results when excess crystal lattice energy?
A)Increased solubility of ionic compound
B)Decreased melting point observed✓
C)Higher conductivity in solution
D)Faster reaction rates are seen
💡 Explanation
A higher crystal lattice energy (ionic bond strength) leads to a decreased melting point because more energy is needed to break the bonds rather than transition to a liquid; therefore melting point lowers, rather than solubility increasing.
