Solution

The correct options are
A Na<K<Rb
B Na>Mg>Al
C F<Cl<Br<I
D Mg<Ca<Sr
All the options (A to D) represent the correct order of reducing property.

(A) Na<K<Rb: On moving down the group, the electropositive character increases and the reducing character increases.

(B) Na>Mg>Al: In a period from left to right, the electropositive character decreases and the reducing character decreases.

(C) F<Cl<Br<I: With the increase in the size of halide ion, the electropositive character increases and the reducing character increases.

(D) Mg<Ca<Sr: On moving down the group, the electropositive character increases and the reducing character increases.

Hence, the correct options are A, B, C and D
