Assertion : Noble gases have maximum electron affinity.
Reason : High electron affinity shows that the electron is loosely bonded to the atom.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

All noble gases have stable configuration. Therefore, they can not take any electron means that they have no affinity for electrons. High electron affinity shows that electron is strongly bonded to the atom. Here both assertion and reason are false.
