Options
A.KOH is a stronger alkali than NaOH.
B.Milk of magnesia is aqueous suspension of Mg(OH)2
C.MgO is a refractory material used for lining electrical furnaces.
D.MgCl2.6H2O on heating yields Mg(OH)2.
Solution
MgCl2 being covalent in nature, gets hydrolysed by the water of crystallisation present, into MgO.
MgCl2 . 6H2O → MgO + 2HCl + 5H2O
MgCl2 . 6H2O → MgO + 2HCl + 5H2O
