Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) i, ii, iv

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The oxoacid salts of group II elements from the given list are \(\mathrm{CaCO}_3, \mathrm{MgSO}_4\) and \(\mathrm{Sr}\left(\mathrm{NO}_3\right)_2\) because all salts contain acid and base with oxygen. \(\mathrm{CaCO}_3\) is a salt of \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{CO}_3\) and…
