Which of the following alkali metal ions...

Which of the following alkali metal ions has the lowest ionic mobility in aqueous solutions?

A

`Li^(o+)`

B

`Na^(o+)`

C

`K^(o+)`

D

`Rb^(o+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Since solvent is not mentioned so ionic mobility `prop` charge density `( `charge `//` size `)` .
`Li^(o+)` has the highest charge density. But in aqueous solution, due to extensive hydration, its mobility becomes lowest amongst the other ions of first group of periodic table.
