Given below are two statements
Assertion (A): Ionic compounds are formed by nondirectional bonds
Reasoning (R): They are soluble in nonpolar solvents The correct answer is
- A Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of \((A)\)
- B Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is not the correct explanation of \((A)\)
- C (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
- D (A) is not correct but (R) is correct
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ionic bonds are electrostatic forces of attraction that are non-directional in nature. Thus, (A) is correct. Ionic compounds are soluble in polar solvents that solvate them via ion-dipole interactions. Thus, \((\mathrm{R})\) is incorrect.
