Vedclass · Answer

(B) The correct answer is $B$. Alkali metals are highly electropositive and form basic oxides and hydroxides. $Na$ (Sodium) is not amphoteric; it is strongly basic in nature. Lithium is indeed the strongest reducing agent in aqueous solution due to its high hydration energy. $Li^{+}$ has an exceptionally small size compared to other alkali metal ions. All alkali metals dissolve in liquid ammonia to form deep blue,conducting solutions due to the presence of ammoniated electrons.
