Assertion (A) : Pbl_4 is astable compound . Reason (R) : Iodide ion statbilised higher oxidation state ,

Assertion (A): KMnO_(4) is a stronger oxidising agent than K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7) . Reason (R ): This is due to increasing stability of the lower species to which they are reduced.

Assertion : Pbl_4 is a stable compound. Reason : Iodide stabilizes higher oxidation state.

Assertion : Cr(VI) in the form of dichromate in acidic medium is a strong oxidising agent where MoO_3 and WO_3 are not. Reason: In d-block elements higher oxidation states are favoured by heavier members.
