The low solubility of LiF and that of CsI in water are respectively due to which of the following properties of the alkali metal ions?
Higher hydration enthalpy of Li, higher lattice enthalpy of Cs+
Smaller hydration enthalpy of Li, higher lattice enthalpy of Cs+
Smaller lattice enthalpy of Li, higher hydration enthalpy of Cs+
Higher lattice enthalpy of Li, smaller hydration enthalpy of Cs+
D.
Higher lattice enthalpy of Li, smaller hydration enthalpy of Cs+
If hydration energy is greater as compare to lattice energy then the salt is soluble, and if hydration energy is lesser as compared to lattice energy, then the salt is insoluble.
LiF is almost insoluble due to high lattice energy. Both ions in LiF are very small. In this case, hydration energy is very less.
In case of CsI both ions are larger in size. As a result both the ions in CsI are less hydrated therefore, its hydration energy will decrease. Hence, it is insoluble in water.
