The radius of which of the hydrated ion is the highest?

A

` Li_((aq))^(oplus)`

B

`Na_((aq))^(oplus)`

C

`K_((aq))^(oplus)`

D

`Rb_((aq))^(oplus)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`Li^(oplus)` ion having the smallest size and the highest charge density is the most hydrated alkali metal and thus the size of `[Li(H_2O)_x ]^(oplus) or Li^(oplus)` (aq) is the highest

    The ion which is not tetrahedral in shape is

    Paragraph I Alkali metal salts are ionic and soluble in water. The solubility of an ionic compound depends on (i) lattice enthalpy and (ii) hydration enthalpy. These two factors oppose each other. If hydration enthalpy is high, the ions will have greater tendency to be hydrated and therefore the solubility will be high. The smaller the cation, the greater is the degree of hydration. The reducing behaviour of alkali metals in solution is also dependent on the hydration enthalpy besides other factors. Which of the following is the strongest reducing agent.
