<span>A. positive ions : Positive ions are formed when a neutral atom loses electrons. When neutral atoms lose electrons, the ions formed are always smaller than the neutral atoms.


B. negative ions : Yes. When the neutral atoms gain electrons to form negative ions, they always become larger, because the addition of one electron increases the electrostatic repulsion of the outermost electrons, forcing them to drift apart.


C. cations  No. Cation is the same that positive ion.

D. none of the above </span>

In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions)
jeyben [28]

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
