Correct option: D
CuSO4â‹…Al2(SO4)3â‹…24H2O\mathrm{CuS}{\mathrm{O}_4} \cdot \mathrm{A}{\mathrm{l}_2}{\left( {\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_4}} \right)_3} \cdot 24{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{O}
Option D (CuSO4â‹…Al2(SO4)3â‹…24H2O\mathrm{CuS}{\mathrm{O}_4} \cdot \mathrm{A}{\mathrm{l}_2}{\left( {\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_4}} \right)_3} \cdot 24{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{O}) is correct because copper has a +2 charge, while alums require a monovalent cation and a trivalent cation.
