Given below are two statements
labelled as Assertion (A) and Reason
Select the most (R).
appropriate answer from the options given below:
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and
(R) is the correct explanation of (A).

(d) (A) is false, but (R) is true.

15. Assertion (A): Elevation in

boiling point is a colligative property. 1
Reason (R) : The lowering of
vapour pressure of solution causes elevation
in boiling point.

reaction.
electrophilic substitution
1
Reason (R) C-CI bond in chlorobenzene
:
acquires partial double bond
characters due to resonance. a

17. Assertion (A) : Conductivity decreases with decrease in

concentration of
electrolyte.
1
Reason (R) : Number of ions per unit volume that carry the
current in a
solution decreases on dilution.

18 Assertion (A) : Transition metals have high enthalpy of atomisation.

1
Reason (R) : Greater number of unpaired electrons in transition metals
results in weak metallic bonding.
