Question

$LiCl$ can be used to control humidity.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Hydration depends on the size and charge of cation, as size increases hydration decreases so $Li$ ion being smallest in size have highest hydration energy and due to higher radius, its mobility will be less. Due to higher hydration energy, it can absorb moisture from the air so $LiCl$ is humidity controller.
