Li+ has a smaller ionic radius than K+

and smaller molecules have more collisions/interactions between each other

<h3>What is ion-solvent interaction ?</h3>

In the case of ion-solvent interactions, the state in which the interac-tions exist is an obvious one; it is the situation in which ions are inside the solvent.

Ions are charged particles, and charges interact with other charges. So there will also be ion-ion, as well as ion-solvent, interactions in the solution.

In the process of solvation, ions are surrounded by a concentric shell of solvent. Solvation is the process of reorganizing solvent and solute molecules into solvation complexes.
