Copper is very slowly oxidized on the surface in moist air,giving a green coating of verdigris. The chemical formula of verdigris is:

$I. Ca(OH)_2$	$A$. Casts of statues
$II. NaCl$	$B$. White wash
$III. CaSO_4 \cdot \frac{1}{2}H_2O$	$C$. Antacid
$IV. CaCO_3$	$D$. Washing soda preparation

Provide the primary details of alkali and alkaline earth metals.

The pair$(s)$ of reagents that yield paramagnetic species is/are:
$A$. $Na$ and excess of $NH_3$
$B$. $K$ and excess of $O_2$
$C$. $Cu$ and dilute $HNO_3$
$D$. $O_2$ and $2-ethylanthraquinol$

Which of the following orders are correct?
$(I)$ Thermal stability: $BeSO_4 < MgSO_4 < CaSO_4 < SrSO_4$
$(II)$ Basic nature: $ZnO > BeO > MgO > CaO$

An aqueous solution of a colourless metal sulphate $M$ gives a white precipitate with $NaOH$. This precipitate is soluble in excess of $NaOH$. On passing $H_2S$ through this solution,a white precipitate is formed. The metal $M$ in the salt is:
