Answer #1

lattice energy is proportional to the product of the charges divided by the radius.
E ~ q1q2/r

Thus, B would be greater than A since their radii are the same but the charge is twice in B. Finally, C is greater than B because the radius is smaller in C, thus it has a higher energy according to our equation. Thus we have: C > B > A.Thus,

Highest energy: C

Lowest energy: A
