Notice that the bond strength for lithium bonded with any of the anions is larger than the bond strength of potassium bonded with any of the same anions. Propose a scientifically sound explanation for this.
Select one:
O a. Lithium comes before sodium or potassium alphabetically, so its bond will be stronger.
O b. Sodium and potassium are essential for human metabolism, so they should not bond as strongly with anions.
Oc. Lithium is the smallest cation, so bond length is shorter creating a tighter bond.
Od Lithium is the only cation with a +1 charge.
