Pls solve

103. Minimum pH is shown by aqueous solution of
(1) 0.1 M BaC12 
(2) 0.1 M Ba(NO3)2
(3) 0.1 M BeC12 
(4) 0.1 M Ba(OH)2

The correct option is (3).

This is because:

          -Acidic character increases across a period from left to right.
          - Acidic character decreases down the group.

Using above two statements, we see that Barium salts are basic in nature, while Be salt is acidic as Be is metalloid.

Thus, BeCl​2 has the lowest pH.
