Which of the following statements are correct ?
(A) Both and
are soluble in ethanol.
(B) The oxides and
combine with excess of oxygen to give superoxide.
(C) is less soluble in water than other alkali metal fluorides.
(D) is more soluble in water than other alkali metal oxides.
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
As we have learnt,
(A) Both and
have significant covalent character and are soluble in ethanol
(B) and
do not form their superoxide
(C) is less soluble in water than other alkali metal fluorides because of high lattice energy
(D) is less soluble in water than other alkali metal oxides because of high lattice energy
Thus, only statements (A) and (C) are correct in the given question.
Hence, the correct answer is Option (A)
