The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will evaluate each statement one by one and determine their validity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Statement 1: Concentrated solution of Li in NH₃ is diamagnetic.** 1. **Understanding the Behavior of Alkali Metals in Liquid Ammonia:** - When alkali metals (like lithium) are dissolved in liquid ammonia, they form a deep blue solution. This blue color is due to the formation of solvated electrons. - The solution is initially paramagnetic due to the presence of unpaired electrons. 2. **Change in Magnetic Properties:** - As the reaction proceeds, hydrogen gas is evolved, and the solution changes color from blue to brown. - This change indicates that the solution becomes diamagnetic as the unpaired electrons are removed. 3. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the first statement is **true**: a concentrated solution of Li in NH₃ is indeed diamagnetic. --- **Statement 2: Mg//NH₃ works as an anti-hydrogenation agent.** 1. **Understanding Magnesium in Ammonia:** - Magnesium, when reacted with ammonia, acts as a reducing agent. - It is commonly known to facilitate hydrogenation reactions, particularly in the Birch reduction process. 2. **Clarifying the Terminology:** - The term "anti-hydrogenation" suggests that it would prevent hydrogenation, which is incorrect. - Instead, magnesium promotes hydrogenation, making the second statement **false**. --- **Statement 3: LiCl forms LiCl.2H₂O.** 1. **Understanding Lithium Chloride Hydration:** - Lithium chloride (LiCl) is known to crystallize with water molecules. - When LiCl is dissolved in water, it forms hydrated crystals, specifically LiCl·2H₂O. 2. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the third statement is **true**: LiCl does indeed form LiCl·2H₂O. --- ### Final Evaluation of Statements: - **Statement 1:** True - **Statement 2:** False - **Statement 3:** True ### Answer: The correct option based on the evaluation of the statements is that the first statement is true, the second is false, and the third is true. ---
