Asseration: `SeCl_(4)`, does not havea tetrahedral structure.
Reason: `Se` in `SeCl_(4)` has two lone pairs.

A

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

B

If both assertion and reason are ture, but reason is not the correct explanantion of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true, but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Correct reason. Se in `SeCl_(4)` is `sp^(3)` d hybridized and has one lone pair of electrorns.
