Assertion : Heterolytic fission involves breaking of bond in such a way that the shared pair of electrons go.
Reason : Heterolytic fission involves breaking of bond in such a way that the shared pair of electrons go with one atom.
.

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:
B
In polar covalent bond, shared pair of electrons is displaced towards the more electronegative atom and hence in heterolytic fission, the electron pair is easily taken away by more electronegative atom.
