02 / ANSWER

Madelung constant A

Cation charge z₊

Anion charge z₋

Ion separation r₀

Born exponent n

Avogadro constant Nₐ

Elementary charge e

Vacuum permittivity ε₀

How to Use

U = −Nₐ A |z₊z₋| e² /(4π ε₀ r₀) × (1 − 1/n).

Every material coefficient and convention is an input. No element, fluid, lab-method, or safety database is queried; results update after a short debounce.
