Solution:

(a) Li

Li is fit for shaping hydrated salts in light of its size. Since it is more modest in size, it has a higher charge thickness and can undoubtedly draw in water atoms around it and for hydrated salts like LiCl.2H2O. The other antacid metals have a greater size and lesser allegation thickness and in this manner aren’t fit for shaping hydrated salts.
