The correct answer here is A - An atom with a positive charge has more
protons than electrons. In the other instances the atom would have a
negative charge.
Answer: It's D
Explanation:
I just did this question and i picked C but it's actually D
Answer:
Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS
Explanation:
The lattice energy of ionic species depends on the relative sizes of ions in the ionic compounds. As the size of ions increases, the lattice energy decreases and vice versa.
When the size of the anions are the same, the lattice energy now depends on the relative sizes of the cations. Therefore, since all the compounds are sulphides and the order of magnitude of ionic sizes is: Li^+ < Na^+ < K^+ < Cs^+.
Therefore, the order of decrease in lattice energy is; Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS
