Which of the following statements is incorrect

Answer»

`Li^(+)` has minimum degree of hydration
The oxidation state of K in `KO_2` is +1
Na is used to make a Na/Pb ALLOY
`MgSO_4` is readily soluble in WATER

Solution :The hydration enthalpies of alkali metal ions DECREASES with increase in IONIC sizes. Hence, the order is `Li^(+) gt Na^(+) GTK^(+) gt Rb^(+) gt Cs^(+)`. Therefore `Li^(+)` has maximum degree of hydration.
