Q. Among the following which one has the highest cation of anion size ratio?

VITEEEVITEEE 2012

Solution:

The size of cation is in order of- $L i^{+} < N a^{+} < C s^{+}$
and the size of anions in the order of- $I^{-} > F^{-}$
Thus, when the cation is largest and anion is smallest, the ratio of their sizes is maximum.
Hence, cation to anion size ratio is maximum for $CsF$.
