Assertion. The O-O bond length in H(2)O(...

Assertion. The O-O bond length in `H_(2)O_(2)` is shorter than that of `O_(2)F_(2)`.
Reason. `H_(2)O_(2)` is an ionic compound.

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
The O - O bond length is shorter in `O_2F_2` than in `H_2O_2` due to higher electronegativity. `H_2O_2` is a non ionic compound. Here both assertion and reason are false.
