                    The correct order of the mobility of the alkali metal ions in aqueous solution is:                 

    A)                  \[L{{i}^{+}}>N{{a}^{+}}>{{K}^{+}}>R{{b}^{+}}\]                 

    B)                  \[N{{a}^{+}}>{{K}^{+}}>R{{b}^{+}}>L{{i}^{+}}\] 

    C)                  \[{{K}^{+}}>R{{b}^{+}}>N{{a}^{+}}>L{{i}^{+}}\]                 

    D)                  \[R{{b}^{+}}>{{K}^{+}}>N{{a}^{+}}>L{{i}^{+}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    The correct order of the mobility of the alkali metal ions in aqueous solutions. \[R{{b}^{+}}>{{K}^{+}}>N{{a}^{+}}>L{{i}^{+}}\] due to following order of hydration energy of these ions \[L{{i}^{+}}>N{{a}^{+}}>{{K}^{+}}>R{{b}^{+}}\] and due to hydration of ion, mobility decreases.
