And that is that the lattice energy as is depicted by the Madelung constant is dominant.

如晶格能中的马德隆常数,就十分重要。

But look at the lattice energy, the Madelung energy component is huge which tells you that when ions form they really want to continue to glom onto one another and form that giant crystal.

看看晶格能，马德龙能很大,这告诉我们，当形成离子是,它们如果要继续的话,需要从另外一方夺取电子，形成巨大的晶体。
