Assertion: Diamond has a ccp arrangement...

Assertion: Diamond has a ccp arrangement in which corners, face centres and alternate tetrahedral holes are occupied by C atoms
Reason: In diamond, C atoms at corners are `sp^(3)` hybridised but at the face centres these are `sp^(2)` hybridised

A

If both assertion and reason are correct and reason is correct explanation for assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not correct explanation for assertion

C

If assertion is correct but reason is incorrect

D

If both assertion and reason are incorrect

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
