Each of a series of ligands, A, B and C can bind Li' ions. The values of AH (KJmol') for the formation of Li* -complexes with all 3 ligands are identical. However, the values for TAS for the three ligands are, A(6.2 KJmol-'), B(28.4 KJmol') and C( 11.2 KJmol-) respectively. Which of the three ligands forms the most stable complex? Give reasons for your answer. (d)
