Assertion : Berylium does not impart any...

Assertion : Berylium does not impart any characteristic colour to the Bunsen flame.
Reason : Due to its very high ionization energy, beryllium requires a large amount of energy for excitation of the electrons.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation 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:
a
The valence electrons in beryllium is too strongly bound to get excited by flame. Hence beryllium element does not impart any colour to the flame.
