The video tutorial covers the Born Lande and Kapuscinski equations for calculating lattice energy. It explains the Kapuscinski approximation, which is used when the lattice structure type is unknown, and demonstrates its application to a rubidium bromide problem. The tutorial includes steps for calculating interatomic distance and compares results from different equations. It concludes with a preview of the next topic, thermodynamic radius.
