Statement 1: The correct order of equivalent conductance at infinite dilution is `LiCl gt NaCl gt KCl`
Statement 2: In case of alkali metal ions, the hydration tendency follows the order `LI^(+) lt Na^(+) lt K^(+)`

A

Statement I is True, statement 2 is True, Statement 2 is correct explanation for statement 1

B

Statement I is True, statement 2 is True, Statement 2 is NOT correct explanation for statement 1

C

Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False

D

Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In case of alkali metal ions, the hydration tendency follows the order `Li^(+) gt Na^(+) gt K^(+)`. Hydration makes the cation heavier and larger. Therefore the mobility follows the order `Li^(+) lt Na^(+) lt K^(+)`. Therefore, the equivalent conductance follows the order `KCl gt NaCl gt LiCl`
