MgCl2
The order of hydration energy of alkaline earth
metal is
Be2+ > Mg2+ > Ca2+
> Sr2+ > Ba2+
The table indicates the value of van der Waals
constant ‘a’ in (dm3)2atm. mol-2

For reaction given in option (a), (b) & (c) Δng = 0
For option (d) Δng = 2 – 1 = 1
∴ KP
= KC (RT)

Tb – 100 = 1.06
Tb = 100 + 1.06
= 101.06 ≈ 101o C
