The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct order among the given options, we will analyze each case step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Ionic Size We are given the ions S²⁻, P³⁻, Ca²⁺, and K⁺. - **Ionic Size Trend**: The size of anions increases with an increase in negative charge, while the size of cations decreases with an increase in positive charge. - **Comparison**: - P³⁻ has the largest size due to the highest negative charge. - S²⁻ is next, as it has a lower negative charge than P³⁻. - K⁺ is larger than Ca²⁺ because K⁺ has a +1 charge while Ca²⁺ has a +2 charge. - Ca²⁺ is the smallest due to its +2 charge. **Order**: P³⁻ > S²⁻ > K⁺ > Ca²⁺ ### Step 2: Analyze Electrical Conductance We are given the cations Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, and Cs⁺. - **Conductance Trend**: Conductance is inversely related to ionic size. Smaller ions have higher conductance due to better mobility. - **Comparison**: - Na⁺ is the smallest and has the highest conductance. - K⁺ is larger than Na⁺ but smaller than Rb⁺. - Rb⁺ is larger than K⁺ but smaller than Cs⁺. - Cs⁺ is the largest and has the lowest conductance. **Order**: Cs⁺ > Rb⁺ > K⁺ > Na⁺ (in terms of conductance, this is reversed) ### Step 3: Analyze Hydrated Size We are given Al³⁺, Mg²⁺, and Na⁺. - **Hydrated Size Trend**: The hydrated size is influenced by the charge and size of the cation. Higher charged cations have a smaller ionic radius but can have a larger hydrated radius due to stronger hydration. - **Comparison**: - Al³⁺ has the highest charge and will have the largest hydrated radius. - Mg²⁺ is next, as it has a +2 charge. - Na⁺ has the lowest charge and thus the smallest hydrated radius. **Order**: Al³⁺ > Mg²⁺ > Na⁺ ### Step 4: Analyze Ionic Mobility We are given F⁻, Cl⁻, Br⁻, and I⁻. - **Ionic Mobility Trend**: Ionic mobility increases with increasing ionic size (for ions with the same charge). - **Comparison**: - I⁻ is the largest and has the highest mobility. - Br⁻ is next, followed by Cl⁻. - F⁻ is the smallest and has the lowest mobility. **Order**: I⁻ > Br⁻ > Cl⁻ > F⁻ ### Conclusion After analyzing all the orders, we find that the only correct order is the hydrated size order: Al³⁺ > Mg²⁺ > Na⁺. ### Final Answer The correct order is: **Al³⁺ > Mg²⁺ > Na⁺**. ---
