V. Assertion and Reason Type

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.

Question: 57

Assertion (A): Sodium chloride formed by the action of chlorine gas on sodium metal is a stable compound.

Reason (R): This is because sodium and chloride ions acquire octet in sodium chloride formation.

(i) A and R both are correct, and R is the correct explanation of A.

(ii) A and R both are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

(iii) A is true but R is false.

(iv) A and R both are false.

Answer: (i)

Question: 58

Assertion (A): Though the central atom of both molecules are hybridised, bond angle is greater than that of .

Reason (R): This is because nitrogen atom has one lone pair and oxygen atom has two lone pairs.

(i) A and R both are correct, and R is the correct explanation of A.

(ii) A and R both are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

(iii) A is true but R is false.

(iv) A and R both are false.

Answer: (i)

Question: 59

Assertion (A): Among the two bonds in molecule, the energy required to break the first bond and the other bond is the same.

Reason (R): This is because the electronic environment around oxygen is the same even after breakage of one bond.

(i) A and R both are correct, and R is correct explanation of A.

(ii) A and R both are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

(iii) A is true but R is false.

(iv) A and R both are false.

Answer: (iv)
