    Answer: KI, LiBr, MgS, GaN

    Explanation:

    Ionic sizes are the deciding factor in lattice energy. The smaller the ion, the higher the lattice energy. Since K+> Li + and I - is larger than Br-, LiBr will have a higher lattice energy. The size of the sulphide ion is much smaller than the nitride ion but the Gallium is much smaller due to lanthanide contraction hence the answer.
