Assertion: In sodium formate, both the `C - O` bonds have same value `1.27 Å`
Reason : Equal bond length is due to the phenomenon of resonance.

A

If Both assertion and reason are true reason is the correct explation of the assertion.

B

If Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution
