Asseration: Nitrogen forms H(2)N-NH(2),N...

Asseration: Nitrogen forms `H_(2)N-NH_(2),N_(2)` and `N_(3)^(-)` ions whereas phosphorus form `P_(4)` molecule.
Reason: Nitrogen can form of three `N-`atoms only, `P` has four catenated atoms.

A

If both asseration and reson are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the asseration.

B

If both asseration and reason are true ans the reason is the correct explanation of the asseration.

C

If asseration is true but reason is false.

D

If asseration is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`N` can form `N_(3)^(-)` (azide ion) involving `3` atoms of `N`.
