The ionic mobility of alkali metal ions ...

The ionic mobility of alkali metal ions in aqueous solution is maximum for

A

`K^(+)`

B

`Rb^(+)`

C

`Li^(+)`

D

`Na^(+)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Bigger the size, lower is the extent of hydration therefore, smaller is the size of the hydrated species and highest is the ionic mobility, i.e., `Rb^(+)` has the maximum mobility .
