Match List - I with List - II : List - I (a) NaOH (b) Be(OH)2 (c) Ca(OH)2 (d) B(OH)3 (e) Al(OH)3 List - II (i) Acidic (ii) Basic (iii) Amphoteric Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

1. (a)-(ii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii), (e)-(iii)
2. (a)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (c)-(ii), (d)-(i), (e)-(iii)
3. (a)-(ii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii), (e)-(iii)
4. (a)-(ii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(iii), (e)-(iii)

Correct answer: (a)-(ii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii), (e)-(iii)

Solution

The correct option accurately categorizes NaOH as a strong base, Be(OH)2 as acidic due to its behavior in water, Ca(OH)2 as a basic compound, B(OH)3 as acidic, and Al(OH)3 as amphoteric, reflecting their chemical properties.
