Which of the following alkali metal ions has lowest ionic moblity in aqueous solutions
1.Rb⁺
2.Cs⁺
3.Li⁺
4.Na⁺

Solution

Dear Gouri Nangliya,
The lowest ionic mobility is possessed by Li⁺. The reason is smaller the size, high will be hydration and hydrated ions move slowly. Bigger the size, smaller will be the hydration and faster will be the ionic mobility.
