What 2 properties affect the lattice energy? Which matters most (usually)?
The two primary factors that affect the lattice energy of an ionic compound are the magnitude of charge associated with the constituent ions and the distance between the ions.

Doubt is : Which of these matters most usually?
magnitude of charge associated with the constituent ions OR
the distance between the ions.

uma

Charges are more important and if charges are same than we compare sizes.
