Assertion (A) - Hydrogen iodide decomposes at $400^{\circ} C$ while hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride are stable at this temperature.
Reason (R) – Thermal stability of hydrogen halides decreases from fluoride to iodide.
 (A): Powdered calcium carbonate reacts much faster with dilute
HCL than with the same mass of $CaCO _3$ as marble.
Reason (R): For a given mass of a reactant, when the particle size decreases, surface area increases. Increase in surface area of the reactant leads to more collisions per litre per second and hence the rate of the reaction also increases.
