Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion \(A\) and the other is labelled as Reason \(R\). Assertion \(A :\) Dipole-dipole interactions are the only non-covalent interactions, resulting in hydrogen bond formation. Reason \(R\) : Fluorine is the most electronegative element and hydrogen bonds in \(HF\) are symmetrical. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
- A \(A \) is false but \(R\) is true
- B Both \(A\) and \(R\) are true and \(R\) is the correct explanation of \(A\)
- C \(A\) is true \(R\) is false
- D Both \(A\) and \(R\) are true but \(R\) is \(NOT\) the correct explanation of \(A\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(A \) is false but \(R\) is true
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Assertion is incorrect since in hydrogen bonding, Dipole-dipole interactions are noncovalent but ion-dipole interaction can also result in \(H\) -bond formation. Reason is correct since \(F\) is most electronegative element \(\&\) structure is Symmetrical \(H-\)bonds are present
