STATEMENT-2 : Sulphur can not increase its oxidation number beyond `+6`.

A

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True and Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True and Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1.

C

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.

D

Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.Maximum oxidation state of S is +6, it cannot exceed it. Therefore it can’t be further oxidized.
