Correct Answer: A
Solution :
The solubility of the sulphates in water decreases down the group The high solubilities of \[\text{BeS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\]and \[\text{MgS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\]are due to the high enthalpy of hydration of the smaller \[B{{e}^{2+}}\] and \[M{{g}^{2+}}\] ions, which overcomes the lattice energy factor.You need to login to perform this action.
