315833 Dehydration of hydrates of halides of calcium, barium and strontium i.e.,
\(\mathrm{CaCl}_{2} 6 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{BaCl}_{2} .2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{SrCl}_{2} .2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)
can be achieved by heating. These become wet on keeping in air. Which of the following statements is correct about these halides?

1 act as dehydrating agent
2 can absorb moisture from air
3 Tendency to form hydrate decreases from calcium to barium
4 All of the above

315834 Statement A :
The solubility of alkaline earth metal carbonates and sulphates in water decreases down the group.
Statement B :
Due to larger size of anion, the lattice enthalpy will remain almost constant within a particular group.

1 Statement A is correct but Statement B is incorrect.
2 Statement A is incorrect but Statement B is correct.
3 Both statements are correct.
4 Both Statements are incorrect.
