    Question

    Which of the following ionic compounds has the highest boiling point?

    A.

    MgC1₂

    B.

    CaC1₂

    C.

    NaC1

    D.

    LiC1

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is: (B) CaCl₂

    Information Booster:
    • CaCl₂ (Calcium chloride) has the highest boiling point among the given ionic compounds because:
      • CaCl₂ has stronger ionic bonds than MgCl₂ due to the higher charge density of the calcium ion (Ca²⁺), which results in stronger electrostatic attractions between the ions.
      • MgCl₂ has slightly weaker ionic bonds compared to CaCl₂ because Ca²⁺ has a greater charge than Mg²⁺.
    Boiling Point Order:
    • CaCl₂ > MgCl₂ > NaCl > LiCl
