Assertion $(A):$ Oximes are less acidic than hydroxyl amine.
Reason $(R):$ Oximes of aldehydes and ketones show geometrical isomerism.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
  • C

  • D
    $A$ is false but $R$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: B.
Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
Oximes are more acidic because, there is a delocalisation of $\pi$ electrons $($i.e. resonance$)$ and it stabilises it and its conjugate acid. But no such resonance exists in hydroxyl amine base $\ce{(NH_2O^-)}.$
