Problem: Calculate the ?H2nd electron affinity for Ca usingthe following data for the formation of CaO: Given: ? H sublimation: +192 KJ ? H ionization: the first and second ionization energies are:590.0KJ/mole and 1145. KJ/mole, respectively ? H dissociation: +494 KJ (Bond energy) ? H 1st electron affinity: -141 KJ/mole ? H formation: -636 KJ ? H lattice energy: -3514 The answer is said to be 845 kJ. I'm completely lost inthe steps. Please help! Thanks!
