Statement-I : Alums are isomorphous crystalline double salts, which are soluble in water.
Statement-II : The aq. Solutions of alums have acidic character due to hydrolysis.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

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

C

If assertion is false but reason is true

D

If assertion is true but the reason is false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Alums are `M'_(2)(SO_(4))M_(2)''(SO_(4))_(3).24H_(2)O`
These are soluble in water. Their aqueuos solution are acid in nature both the statements are true but it is not the correct explanation.
