QJEEM21Ch0a89: JEE Main 2021 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM21Ch0a89 Solution: The correct order of conductivity of ions in water is :

The correct order of conductivity of ions in water is :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A K+ > Na+ > Cs+ > Rb+
  • B Cs+ > Rb+ > K+ > Na+
  • C Na+ > K+ > Rb+ > Cs+
  • D Rb+ > Na+ > K+ > Li+

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

As the size of gaseous ion decreases, it get more hydrated in water and hence, the size of aqueous ion increases. When this bulky ion move in solution, it experience greater resistance and hence lower conductivity.
