Question

The alkaline earth metal nitrate that does not crystallize with water molecules

Answer 1

Ba(Na3)2 is the alkaline earth metal nitrate that does not crystallize with water molecules because the size of the Ba atom is small and has low polorization power

Answer 2

Answer:

Barium Nitrate - Ba(NO3)2.

Explanation:

Alkaline Earth metals are listed below:

• Beryllium (Be)
• Magnesium (Mg)
• Calcium (Ca)
• Strontium (Sr)
• Barium (Ba)
• Radium (Ra).

They are electro-positive (e2+) and are highly reactive in nature. They posses two electrons in its outermost shell.

Out of the nitrates of alkaline earth metals, Barium Nitrate is the best example that does not crystalline with molecules of water. It is highly soluble in water.

Polar ions of nitrate (solute) gets attracted the polar molecules of water (solvent).
