Assertion : Anilinium choride is more acidic than ammonium chloride.
Reason : Anilinium ion is resonance-stabilised.

A

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

B

If both assertion and reason are ture, but reason is not the true explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true, but reason is false.

The correct Answer is:
C
Correct reason: Since ammonia is a stronger base than aniline, therefore, the conjugate acid of aniline, i.e., anilinum chloride is more acidic than conjugate acid of ammonia, i.e., ammonium chloride.
