Assertion: - Metaphosphoric acid is high...

Assertion: - Metaphosphoric acid is highly unstable in monomer form and easily convert into trimer or ppolymer form.
Reason:- `2p pi-3p pi` bond between P and O atom of `HPO_(3)` is very weak . So tendency of polymerisation is high

Assertion: F atom has less electron afffinity than Cl atom. Reason: Additional electrons are repelled more strongly by 3p electrons in Cl atom than by 2p electrons in F atom.

Assertion : In formaldehyde all the four atoms lie in one plane. Reason : Carbonyl carbon forms a pi -bond with oxygen by overlapping of p -orbitals.

Assertion : In longitudinal wave pressure is maximum at a point where displacement is zero . Reason : There is a phase difference of (pi)/(2) between y(x,t) and Delta P (x, t) equation in case of longitudinal wave.

Assertion : In SO_(3) molecule bond dissociation energy of all S=O bonds are not equivalent. Reason : SO_(3) molecule is having two types of 2 p pi - 3 p pi and 2p pi- 3d pi pi-bonds.

A covalent bond will be formed by the overlapping of atomic orbitals having single electron of opposite spin, according to the overlapping of atomic orbitals the covalent bond may be of two types : (i) Sigma bond (sigma) " " (ii) Pi bond (pi) Sigma bond is stronger bond than the Pi-bond. If atomic orbitals overlap about the nuclear axis then sigma bond is formed but when atomic orbitals overlap sideway then Pi-bond is formed. The strength of bonds formed by 2s-2s,2p-2p and 2p-2s overlap has the order :
