Assertion : The solubility of `HgI_(2)` in water decreases in presence of `KI`.
Reason : `HgI_(2)` is insoluble in water but it becomes soluble in `KI(aq)`.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explantion of the assertion.

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
