Ioni character of Lih, Nah, Csh order?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100719140125AAjljXK http://yougems.reflectionsinfos.com/queries/viewquery/5100 these say two different things. I agree with the the first link, keeoing in mind fajans rule.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fajans'_rules

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

humnn i will be back!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Smaller the Size of Cation more Polarising power So More Covalent Character..hence the order Li < Na < Cs

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

ionic char. inc down the group.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont know what i was thinking. Increases down the group seems to be following fajans rule now, right? This is what is written in my book... The ionic character of hydrides decreases from Li to Cs. The reason being that as the size of the cation decrases, the anion hydride can polarize the cation more easily. As a result covalent character increases and hence ionic character decreases. What do you thnk?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And ionic character of hydrides of Nitrogen group would be Nh3<Ph3<.... so on And of oxygen group. H2o<h2s<... so on, right??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Yahoo! ?

@shubhamsrg

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

I guess ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

electronegativity decreases down the group. so electronegativity differences decreases down the group. so shouldnt ionic character decrease?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@chmvijay ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

batao yaar.... :/

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

LiH<NaH<CsH

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

Tthe electronegative character decreases down the gp

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

therefore there ionic character increases down the group!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

the guy there explains your query well.. nahi ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So in this case we have H with a low electronegativity right?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

H is common among all, and H is more electro-ve than Na, Cs or Li ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are answer bta do mereko ek baari. fir mai sochta rahunga.

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

Cs ka electro-vity least hai Na,Cs aur Li me,to sabse zyada diff isi me hoga hence order CsH > NaH > Lih

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To iska matlab O ki electronegativity max hai to h2o<h2s hi hoga.. Hmm. Ab samajh aaya. Thank you.

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

arre haan! :P

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

maine bhi ye chiz just abhi abhi sikhi! ^_^ thanks to you :')

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ek second. aise jan kehte ho ki Cs ki electronegativity least hai. to difference kaise zyaada hoga? stupid question i know. :(

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

electro-vity to regularly decrease karti hai down the group !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ho. kya kr rha hun mai. ok ok. thank you again.
