NEET2010ChemistryChemical Bonding and Molecular StructureActual
Among the following which one has the highest cation to anion size ratio?
Options
- ACsI
- BCsF
- CLiF
- DNaF
Correct answer
B. CsF
Step-by-step solution
The order of size of given cations is Li ⁺ F ⁻ Thus, when the cation is largest and anion is smallest, the cation to anion size ratio is maximum. Hence, cation to anion size ratio is maximum for CsF.
