Because attraction of water molecules around an ion depends on. that ion's density of charge, smaller ions (and thus ions of greater ionic. potenti. al) attract more water molecules. The result is the. inverse. relationship. between non-hydrated radius and hydrated radius shown below.
[v. 5] In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.   This would have made David 37 when he became king of all Israel. Do not get confused between 'Judah' and 'Israel': they are not the same.
King Solomon is the son and successor of David. According to Encyclopaedia Britannica, he flourished in the mid-10th century BC, i.e. around 950 BC. The Good News Bible in its Outline Chart of Bible History places his reign around 970 to 931 BC or for 39 years.ing Solomon died after ruling Israel for 40 lunar years (1 Kings 11:42, 2 Chronicles 9:30). This is equivalent to about 39 solar years. His reign therefore was from 992 BC to 953 BC. He was buried in David s City (1 Kings 11:43, 2 Chronicles 9:31).
