In the following question, an Assertion (A) is followed by a corresponding Reason (R). Use the following keys to choose the appropriate answer.
Assertion : LiCl is a typical ionic compound exhibiting covalent characters.
Reason : Electronegativity difference between Li and Cl is too small.

A

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

B

If both (A) and (R) are correct, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

C

If (A) is correct, but (R) is incorrect.

D

If both (A) and (R) are incorrect.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

LiCl exhibit covalent character due to the large size of the anion (`Cl^(-)`).
