\(0.1\) M aqueous solution of the following salts were prepared. Their conductivity values were measured at \(25\circ C\). Which of the following will possess least conductivity at \(25\circ C\)?

  1. A \(MgCl_2\)
  2. B \(BeCl_2\)
  3. C \(SrCl_2\)
  4. D \(CaCl_2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(BeCl_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Ionic mobility depends on hydrated ionic radius. Smaller bare ions hydrate more extensively, leading to larger hydrated radii and lower mobility. Order of bare ionic radii: \(Be^{2+} Order of hydration:…
