MCQ
Note : In the following questions a statement of Assertion $(A)$ followed by a statement of Reason $(R)$ is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.
Assertion $(A)$ : If aluminium atoms replace a few silicon atoms in three dimensional network of silicon dioxide, the overall structure acquires a negative charge.
Reason $(R)$ : Aluminium is trivalent while silicon is tetravalent.
  • $A$ and $R$ both are correct, and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • B
    $A$ and $R$ both are correct, but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$.
  • C
    $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ and $R$ both are false.

Answer

Correct option: A.
$A$ and $R$ both are correct, and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
In aluminosilicates $($anion$),$ some of silicon atoms are replaced by aluminum.
Since, aluminum is trivalent while silicon is tetravalent hence we get negatively charged ion.

Assertion : Increasing order of acidity of hydrogen halides is $\ce{HF < HCl < HBr < HI}$
Reason : While comparing acids formed by the elements belonging to the same group of periodic table, $H-A$ bond strength is a more important factor in determining acidity of an acid than the polar nature of the bond.
Assertion (A): Components of a mixture of red and blue inks can be separated by distributing the components between stationary and mobile phases in paper chromatography.
Reason (R): The coloured components of inks migrate at different rates because paper selectively retains different components according to the difference in their partition between the two phases.
