Statement-1: Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur, yet `H_(2)S` is acidic, while `H_(2)O` is neutral.
Statement-2: `H-S` bond is weaker than `O-H` bond.

A

If both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)

B

if both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not correct explanation of (A)

C

If (A) is true but (R) is false

D

If (A) is false but (R) is false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

H-S bond is weaker than H-O bond hence, `H_(2)S` is more acidic than `H_(2)O`.
