Assertion (A): If aluminium atom s replace a few silicon atoms in three dimensional network of silicon dioxide, the overall structure acquries a negative charge.
Reason(R): Aluminium is trivalent while silicon is tetravalent.

A

Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A

B

Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A

C

Both A and R are not correct

D

A is not correct but R is correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d
Assertion is not correct but reason is correct. Aluminium is trivalent whereas silicon is tetravalent. If aluminium atom replaces a few silicon atoms in three dimensional network of silicon dioxide, the overall structure acquires neutrally.
