Consider an ionic compound, MX2, composed of generic metal M

Consider an ionic compound, MX2, composed of generic metal M and generic, gaseous halogen X? Given:The enthalpy of formation of MX2 is ΔHf° = –957 kJ/mol. The enthalpy of sublimation of M is ΔHsub = 123 kJ/mol. The first and second ionization energies of M are IE1 = 757 kJ/mol and IE2 = 1451 kJ/mol. The electron affinity of X is ΔHEA = –313 kJ/mol.The bond energy of X2 is BE = 153 kJ/mol.
