Sodium sulphate is soluble in water but ...

Sodium sulphate is soluble in water but barium sulphate is insoluble because

A

The hydration energy of `Na_2SO_4` is more than its lattice energy

B

the lattice energy of `BaSO_4` is more than its hydration energy

C

the lattice energy has no role to play in solubility

D

The lattice energy of `Na_2SO_4` is less than its lattice energy. Or (E) both A and B

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
E
`Na_2SO_4` is soluble in water while `BaSO_4` is not because (A) hydration energy of `Na_2SO_4` is more than its lattice energy and (B) lattice energy of `BaSO_4` is more than its hydration energy.
