Find the correct statement:
A) Hard cations with high charge and small radius form stable compounds with hard anions.
B) Hard anions are formed by elements found at the bottom right of the periodic table.
C) Soft cations have closed shell electronic configuration.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hard cations, which have a high charge and small radius, tend to form stable compounds with hard anions due to their similar properties, such as high electronegativity and small size, which lead to strong ionic or covalent bonding.
