QJEEM24Ch5065: JEE Main 2024 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM24Ch5065 Solution: Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A…

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R:

Assertion A: H2Te\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{Te} is more acidic than H2 S\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{~S} .

Reason R: Bond dissociation enthalpy of H2Te\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{Te} is lower than H2 S\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{~S} .

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate from the options given below:

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Both AA and RR are true and RR is the correct explanation of AA .
  • B Both AA and RR are true but RR is NOT the correct explanation of AA .
  • C AA is false but RR is true.
  • D AA is true but RR is false.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Due to lower Bond dissociation enthalpy of H2Te\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{Te} it ionizes to give H+\mathrm{H}^{+} more easily than H2S\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{S} .
