Assertion Among two cations of similar size the polarising power of cation with pseudo noble gas configuration is larger than cation with noble gas configuration
Reasoning Polarising power of `Ag^(o+)` is more than `K^(o+)` .

A

If both `(A)` and `(R )` are correct and `(R )` is the correct explanation of `(A)`

B

If both `(A)` and `(R )` are correct and `(R )` is the correct explanation of `(A)`

C

If `(A)` is correct but `(R )` is incorrect

D

If `(A)` is incorrect but `(R )` is correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Cations with pseudo gas configuration has high `Z_(eff)` than cation with nodal gas conguration due to the presence of d-orbitals hence `Ag^(o+)` ion having more `Z_(eff)` than `K^(o+)` and is smaller than `K^(o+)` ion .

According to Fajans'rules, the percentage of covalent character in an ionic compound increase if the cation is highly charged or small in size and the anion is large or cation has pseudoinert gas configuration. As a result of the increased covalent character, solubility in less polar solvent increases and the melting point decreases. Which of the following has the lowest melting point?
