Solution

Dear student,
The ease of adsorption of the hydrated alkali metal ions on an ion-exchange resin follows the increasing order of Rb⁺ < K⁺ < Na⁺ < Li⁺.
The ease of adsorption of the hydrated alkali metal ions in an ion-exchange resin decreases as size of alkali metal ions increases.
Regards.
