Questions Related to alkali metals

Select the correct statements :

  1. Solubility of alkali earth metal's oxide decreases down the group

  2. Solubility of alkaline earth metal's sulphide increases down the group

  3. Solubility of alkali metal's hydroxide increases down the group

  4. Solubility of alkali metal's fluorides increases down the group


Correct Option: B,C,D

Select the correct order of density.

  1. Na > K

  2. Na < K

  3. Mg > Ca

  4. Mg < Ca


Correct Option: A,C
Explanation:

The trend of density amongst alkali metals: $Li<K<Na<Rb<Cs$


The trend of density amongst alkaline earth metals: $Ca<Mg<Be<Sr<Ba<Ra$

Hence the correct choices are $Na>K$ and $Mg>Ca$
