Lithium is the lighest alkali metal but in aqueous solution , Li^(+) has the lowest mobility among alkali metals . Why so ? |
| Answer» Solution :Because of SMALLEST size AMONG alkali metals , `LI^(+)` ions are most highly hydrated in aqueous solution . As a result , among alkali metals , mass of hydrated LITHIUM ion is the highest and thus has lowest IONIC mobility . | |
