Which of the following has highest hydration energy?

• MgCl₂

• CaCl₂

• BaCl₂

• SrCl₂

Which of the following reactions produces hydrogen?

• Mg + H₂O

• H₂S₂O₈ + H₂O

• BaO₂ + HCl

• Na₂O₂ + 2HCl

Assertion : BeSO₄ is soluble in water while BasO₄ is not.

Reason : Hydration energy decreases down the group from Be to Ba and lattice energy remains almost constant.

• If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

• If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

• If assertion is true but reason is false

• If both assertion and reason are false.
