Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Melting point of Boron (2453 K) is unusually high in group 13 elements.
Reason (R) : Solid Boron has very strong crystalline lattice.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below ;
Multiple Choice Options
- A Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) Is not the correct explanation of (A)
- B Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- C (A) is true but (R) is false
- D (A) is false but (R) is true
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Solid Boron has very strong crystalline lattice so its melting point unusually high in group 13 elements
