Assertion : Atomic size of As is more than that of $P.$
Reason : Atomic size decreases along a period.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is correct explanation of the assertion.
  • ✓
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  • C
    $A$ is true, but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false, but $R$ is true.

For question two statements are given $-$ one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R).$ Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $\ce{(a), (b), (c)}$ and $(d)$ as given below : Assertion : Graphite is a good conductor of electricity.
Reason : lt has one free valence electron.

Assertion (A): A proton moves horizontally towards a vertical long conductor having an upward electric current. It will deflect vertically downward.
Reason (R): Seeing the proton and the conductor from the side of the proton, the magnetic field at the site of the
proton will be towards the right. Hence the force $\vec{F}=q \vec{\nu} \times \vec{B}$ will deflect the proton vertically downward.
