Question

(11)

The compound with the smallest lattice energy amongst the given compounds in terms of magnitude is KI, because it has larger cation size as compared to NaI.

Also since Mg has higher cationic charge, so its compounds have higher lattice energy value.

Hence the correct answer is KI.

(12)

The correct statement amongst the given ones is:

(B) Compounds have a constant composition but mixtures do not.

Statement C is false because elements in a mixture can be more easily separated by chemical methods.

Hope this helps !
