Question

Zn+2 and Cu+ which have more polarizing power?

Answer 1

Zn+2 has more polarizing power

Answer 2

Zn+2

As the charge on an ion increases, the electrostatic attractions of the cation for the outer electrons of the anion increases, resulting in the degree of covalent bond formation increasing. Anions of lower charge density are more polarizable. ... Hence, when a smaller cation approaches, greater polarisation is caused
