MCQ
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ : and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$. Assertion $(A)$ : Both rhombic and monoclinic sulphur exist as $S_5$ while oxygen exists as $O_2$.
Reason $(R)$ : Oxygen forms $\mathrm{p} \pi-\mathrm{p} \pi$ multiple bonds with itself and other elements having small size and high electronegativity like $\mathrm{C}, \mathrm{N}$, which is not possible for sulphur.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- ABoth $(A)$ and $(R)$ are correct and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A)$.
- BBoth $(A)$ and $(R)$ are correct but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of $(A)$.
- ✓$(A)$ is correct but $(R)$ is not correct.
- D$(A)$ is not correct but $(R)$ is correct.
