Question

Polarisation is the distortion of the shape of anion by an adjacently placed cation. Which of the
following statement is correct
1) Maximum polarisation is brought about by cation of high charge
2) Maximum polarisation is brought about by Cation of Low charge
3) A large cation is likely to bring about a large degree of polarisation
4) A small anion is likely undergo a large degree of polarisation​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Polarisation is the distortion of the shape of anion by an adjacently placed cation. Which of the

following statement is correct

1) Maximum polarisation is brought about by cation of high charge

2) Maximum polarisation is brought about by Cation of Low charge

3) A large cation is likely to bring about a large degree of polarisation

4) A small anion is likely undergo a large degree of polarisation

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer should option 1.

Explanation:

ACC to fajans rule higher the value of cation higher it's polarization power.
