B

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

C

If assertion is false but reason is true

D

If assertion is true but the reason is false

The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down the assertions and reasons step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement 1:** Concentrated solution of CuCl₂ in water is yellow in color. - **Analysis:** The color of concentrated CuCl₂ (copper(II) chloride) in water is actually blue-green, not yellow. This is due to the presence of hydrated copper ions in the solution. Therefore, this statement is **false**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 2 **Statement 2:** The concentrated solution contains [CuCl₄]²⁻ ion and [Cu(H₂O)₄]²⁺ ion. - **Analysis:** When CuCl₂ is dissolved in water, it can form complex ions. In concentrated solutions, it can indeed form the tetrahedral complex ion [CuCl₄]²⁻ and the tetra-aqua complex [Cu(H₂O)₄]²⁺. This statement is **true**. ### Step 3: Conclusion - **Assertion (Statement 1)** is **false**. - **Reason (Statement 2)** is **true**. ### Final Answer Since the assertion is false and the reason is true, the correct conclusion is that the assertion is false, but the reason is true.
