Gujarat BoardEnglish MediumSTD 11 ScienceNEETSTD 11 -p-Block elements - I4 Marks
MCQ
Assertion : $PbCl_2$ is more stable than $PbCl_4$.

Reason : $PbCl_4$ is powerful oxidising agent.

  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • ✓
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • C
    If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
✓

Answer

Correct option: B.
If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
b
$Pb^{2+}$ is more stable than $Pb^{4+}$ due to inert pair effect. Due to this reason, $PbCl_4$ decomposer readily into $PbCl_2$ and $Cl_2$

$PbCl_4 \to PbCl_2 + Cl_2$

Thus $Pb^{4+}$ salts are better oxidising agents
