The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements, we will break down the assertion (A) and reason (R) step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion (A) The assertion states that "Magnesium and Cesium gives blue colour in flame coloration." **Analysis:** - Magnesium (Mg) is an alkaline earth metal from Group 2 of the periodic table. - Cesium (Cs) is an alkali metal from Group 1 of the periodic table. - When metals are heated in a flame, they can emit characteristic colors due to the excitation of their electrons. - Cesium is known to produce a blue flame when burned, but magnesium typically does not produce a colored flame; it burns with a bright white light. **Conclusion for A:** The assertion is **false** because magnesium does not give a blue color in flame coloration. ### Step 2: Understand the Reason (R) The reason states that "Mg and Cs are of comparable size." **Analysis:** - Magnesium has an atomic radius of about 160 pm, while cesium has a much larger atomic radius of about 262 pm. - Therefore, they are not comparable in size; cesium is significantly larger than magnesium. **Conclusion for R:** The reason is **false** because magnesium and cesium are not of comparable size. ### Step 3: Evaluate the Relationship between A and R - Since both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are false, we conclude that the correct option is that both statements are false. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and reason are false. ---
