Assertion : Both rhombic and monoclinic Sulphur have \(\mathrm{S}_8\) molecules. Reason : They have planar structure. The correct option among the following is
- A (A) is true, (R) is true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)
- B (A) is true, (R) is true but (R) is not the correct explanation for (A)
- C (A) is true but (R) is false
- D (A) is false but (R) is true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (A) is true but (R) is false
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Both rhombic and monoclinic sulphur have \(\mathrm{S}_8\) molecule in puckered ring form. This looks like a crown. However, they are packed in different crystal structure.
