Question

The correct statements among the following are
I. Due to greater polarizing power of Li⁺, Li₂CO₃ is most stable
II. LiHCO₃ does not exist as solid
III. NaNO₃ on strong heating gives NaNO₂where as LiNO₃ will give Li₂O
IV. Sodium &Potassium ions are involved in the transport of sugars and amino acids in to the cells

V. LiF is less soluble due to smaller hydration energy of Li⁺ ion

• A. I, II & V
• B. III, IV & V
• C. II, III & IV
• D. I, III & V

Answer 1

The correct option is C

II, III & IV

Li₂CO₃ is unstable and Li⁺ has high hydration energy
