Answer:
Salts of lithium having small anions
have more lattice enthalpy because these have more ionic character as compared
to the salts having large anions. In fact, large anion has a greater
polarisability as compared to smaller anion and imparts covalent character to
the salt. As a result, salts with smaller anions are more thermally stable than
the salts having bigger anions. Thus, LiF is more stable than LiCl.
