The correct order of solubility of the sulphates of alkaline earth metals in water is

A

BegtCagtMggtBagtSr

B

MggtBegtBagtCagtSr

C

BegtMggtCagtSrgtBa

D

MggtCagtBagtBegtSr

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Be gt MggtCa gt Sr gt Ba
On moving down the the group lattice energy remains almost constant as the sulphate is so big that small increases in any size of the cations from Be to Ba does not make any difference. However the hydration energy decreases from `Be^(+2)` to `Ba^(+2)` . this causes decreases in the solubility of the sulphates as the ionic size increases.
