Which order is NOT correct

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

Melting point :

LiCl > NaCl > KCl > RbCl > CsCl

Option C is the incorrect order. The melting point order for alkali metal chlorides decreases down the group, but LiCl has an anomalously low melting point due to its covalent character.
