The incorrect statement about alkali metals is -
1. They have low density.
2. They have high ionization enthalpy.
3. They are highly reactive.
4. They show photoelectric effect.
Sodium is less reactive than potassium because-
1. Potassium loses electron easily.
2. Sodium loses electron easily.
3. Size of sodium is larger than potassium.
4. Nuclear charge is more on potassium.
Beryllium and Magnesium do not impart color in flame test, because -
1. Be and Mg have high Ionization Energy.
2. Be and Mg have low Ionization Energy.
3. Be and Mg radiate energy in the Infra-Red region.
4. Be and Mg have a high radius.
LiF is almost insoluble in water whereas LiCl is soluble in water and acetone both, because of:
| 1. | Greater covalent character of LiCl as compared to LiF. |
| 2. | Greater hydration energy of LiF as compared to LiCl. |
| 3. | Greater size of LiF as compared to LiCl. |
| 4. | Greater lattice energy of LiF as compared to LiCl. |
Sodium hydroxide can be prepared by:
1. Down's Process.
2. Castner–Kellner process.
3. Solvay's Process.
4. None of the above.
The characteristic of alkaline earth metals is that-
