Assertion (A) :` Pb^(+4)` compounds are stronger oxidiising agents than ` Sn^(4+)` compounds .
Reason (R): The higher oxidation states for group `14` elements are more stable for the heavier members of the group due to inert pair effect .

A

Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true, statement 2 si a correct explanation for statement 11

B

Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true, statement 2 is not a correct explanation for statement 11

C

Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is false

D

Statement 1 is false, statement 2 is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
statement 1 is true because lower oxidation state becomes more & more stable for heavier element in p-block due to inert pair effect. Hence statement 2 is false
