Solution
The correct option is BAr−7.74,Na−108,Si−447 andNaCl−764. Argon is a noble gas with completed octet. It has minimum cohesive energy. Sodium chloride is the ionic compound. It has highest cohesive energy. Sodium is electropositive metal. It has next maximum cohesive energy. Thus, the correct correlation is Ar−7.74,Na−108,Si−447 and NaCl−764
