Assertion : The aqueous solution of `FeCl_(3)` is basic in nature .
Reason : `FeC1_(3)` hydrolyses in water.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is not 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 and reason both is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The aqueous solution of `FeCl_(3)` is acidic in nature because `FeCl_(3)` hydrolyse in water to produce acid ion.
`FeCl_(3)+3H_(2)Orarr Fe(OH)_(3)+3HCl`
Therefore, assertion is false but reason is true.
`AgCl+2NH_(4)OH rarr Ag(NH_(2))_(2)Cl+2H_(2)O`
Therefore, both assertion and reason are true and reason is a correct explanation of assertion.
