The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is true among the given options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option 1: Na2CO3 is strongly basic in nature.** - Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) is a salt derived from a strong base (NaOH) and a weak acid (H2CO3). It can hydrolyze in water to produce hydroxide ions (OH⁻), which makes it basic. However, it is not considered "strongly basic" like NaOH. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. 2. **Analyze Option 2: Pure NaCl is hygroscopic.** - Hygroscopic substances are those that can absorb moisture from the air. Pure sodium chloride (NaCl) does not absorb moisture from the air under normal conditions; it remains dry. Therefore, this statement is also **incorrect**. 3. **Analyze Option 3: On increasing temperature, the solubility of NaCl in water occurs.** - Sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound, and typically, the solubility of ionic solids in water increases with an increase in temperature. This is a well-known principle in chemistry. Therefore, this statement is **correct**. 4. **Analyze Option 4: All of these.** - Since we have determined that options 1 and 2 are incorrect, option 4, which states "all of these," is also **incorrect**. ### Conclusion: After analyzing all the options, we find that the only true statement is **Option 3: On increasing temperature, the solubility of NaCl in water occurs.** ---
