Yes because Cs has more Electrons- which causes it to have more shells and this causes the structure to be larger. Li is small because it had a smaller amount of electrons- so it doesn't need a lot of shells which causes the shell to be smaller and the valence electron to be closer to the nucleus.

Is Li have the smallest ionic radius?

No, H+ ions are the smallest (proton size), hydrogen atoms and even Li+ ions are smaller than Li atoms.


What is the smallest to largest Li Li Rb Cs?

Smallest to largest is going down the group 1. I.e. Li is smallest<Rb<Cs


Is Rb more reactive then Li k Na Cs?

Yes, rubidium (Rb) is more reactive than lithium (Li), potassium (K), sodium (Na), and cesium (Cs). In the alkali metal group, reactivity increases as you move down the periodic table due to the increasing atomic size and the decreasing ionization energy, which makes it easier for the atoms to lose their outermost electron. Thus, Rb, being below K and Na, is more reactive than all of them. However, cesium (Cs) is even more reactive than rubidium.


Li ions are more readily hydrated than Cs ions?

Li ions are more readily hydrated than Cs ions due to their smaller size and higher charge density. The smaller radius of Li allows it to interact more effectively with water molecules, leading to stronger ion-dipole interactions and increased hydration energy. In contrast, Cs ions, being larger and having a lower charge density, have weaker interactions with water, resulting in less effective hydration. This difference in hydration behavior significantly influences their chemical properties and reactivity in aqueous environments.

What ions would be most likely to form?

Atoms of alkaline metals: Rb, Cs, Fr, K, Na, Li. They have a low ionization potential. This potential is expressed in kJ/mol - molar ionization energy and is different for the first, second, third...n electron.


What is the mass in grams of 2.56 x 10.24 atoms Li?

2.59 atoms?? Oh well. 2.59 atoms Li (1mol Li/6.022 X 10^23 )(6.941 grams Li/1mol Li ) = 2.98 X 10^-23 grams


Which atom has the larger atomic radius K or Li?

K has a larger atomic radius than Li. This is because atomic radius generally increases down a group in the periodic table, so potassium (K) being below lithium (Li) in Group 1 will have a larger atomic radius.
