Description : Mention the Points of Similarities between ‘Lithium and Magnesium’
Last Answer : The similarity between lithium and magnesium is particularly striking and arises because of their similar sizes : (atomic radii, Li = 152 pm, Mg = 160 pm; ionic radii : Li+ = 76 ... Both LiCl and MgCl2 are deliquescent and crystallise from aqueous solution as hydrates, LiCl·2H2O and MgCl2·8H2O.
