MCQ
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion(A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion(A) : In p-block, when we move down in group, stability of highest oxidation state decreases.
Reason (R) : In d-block, when we move down in group, stability of highest oxidation state increases.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
  • A
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • C
    Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
  • D
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are false

Answer

Correct option: B.
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
B
