`LICIO_(4)` is more soluble than `NaCIO_(4)`Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The small size of the Lition means that it has a very high enthalpy of hydration and so lithium salts are much more soluble than the salts of other group 1. E.g. `LiClO_(4)`, is upto 12 times more soluble than `NaClO_(4)`
