Assertion: Nitrogen molecule is diamagnetic.
Reason: `N_2` molecule have unpaired electrons.

A

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

B

if both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

if assertion is true but reason is false

D

if the assertion and reason both are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`N_(2)` molecule is diamagnetic. The diamagnetic character is due to the presence of paired electron `N_(2)` molecule does not contain any unpaired electron. Thus, assertion is correct but the reason is false.
