Assertion : Cr(VI) in the form of dichromate in acidic medium is a strong oxidising agent where `MoO_3 and WO_3` are not.
Reason: In d-block elements higher oxidation states are favoured by heavier members.

In the form of dichromate, Cr(VI) is a strong oxidising agent in acidic medium but Mo(VI) in Mo0_(3) and W(VI) in W0_(3) are not because

Assertion (A) : Pb^(+4) compounds are stronger oxidiising agents than Sn^(3+) compounds . Reason (R): The higher oxition states for grouup 14 eelments are more stable for the heavier members of the frop due to inert pair effect .

Assertion: Ce^(4+) is used as an oxidising agent in volumetric analysis. Reason: Ce^(4+) has the tendency to attain +3 oxidation state.

Assertion :- Cr^(+2) is a reducing agent and Mn^(+3) is oxidising agent. Reason :- Mn^(+3) has d^(5) configuration.
