Detailed Solution

(a) Standard enthalpy of formation for alkali bromides becomes more negative on descending down the group.
(b) In case of  CsI , lattice energy is less, but  Cs+  is having less hydration enthalpy due to which it is less soluble in water.
(c) For alkali metal fluorides, the solubility in water increases from lithium to caesium.  LiF is least soluble in water.
(d) Standard enthalpy of formation for LiF is most negative among alkali metal fluorides.
