Choose the incorrect option related to this reaction from the following:
Select the correct option:
A
Be is tetrahedrally coordinated in the ionic salt.
B
The reaction is an example of acid – base neutralization reaction.
C
Both Sr and Be elements are present in the ionic salt.
D
The elements Be is present in the cationic part of the ionic salt.
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Sol. $\quad \mathrm{Be}(\mathrm{OH})_2$ is amphoteric in nature.
$\mathrm{Sr}(\mathrm{OH})_2$ is basic in nature.
These two undergo acid - base reaction to form a salt.
$$
\mid \mathrm{Be}(\mathrm{OH})_2+\mathrm{Sr}(\mathrm{OH})_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{Sr}\left[\mathrm{Be} \underset{(\text { salt })}{(\mathrm{OH})_4}\right]
