A

Statement 1 is True, statement 2 is True, Statement 2 is Correct explanation for Statement 1.

B

Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True, Statement 2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement 4

C

Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False.

D

Statement i is False, Statement 2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`Na_2O` with water forms a strong base whereas `Cl_2 O_2` forms strong acid.
`Na_2O +H_2O to 2NaOH , Cl_2O_7 + H_2O to 2HClO_4`
