Assertion : In IOF_(4)^(-) a single lone pair is present an iodine atom trans to oxygen to have minimum repulsion between the I=0 and the lone pair of electrons. Reason : The VSEPR model consider double and triple bonds to have slightly greater repulsive effect then single bonds bonds because of the repulsive effective pi electrons
