Assertion : The presence of `Ag^(+)` enhance the solubility of alkenes in water.
Reason : Alkenes are weakly polar in nature.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`Ag^(+)` forms complex with the alkene by `ppi-dpi` bonding giving an ion and the solubility increases.
