Q 35 :

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.

Assertion A: Cu2+ in water is more stable than Cu+.

Reason R: Enthalpy of hydration for Cu2+ is much less than that of Cu+.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:            [2023]

  • Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)

  • Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

     

  • (A) is not correct but (R) is correct

     

(2)

In aqueous solution, Cu+1 is unstable and it disproportionates.

2Cu+1Cu(s)+Cu+2(aq)

Hydration energy of Cu2+ is higher than Cu+1 and this compensates its ionisation energy.
