Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : Dipole-dipole interactions are the only non-covalent interactions, resulting in hydrogen bond formation.
Reason R : Fluorine is the most electronegative element and hydrogen bonds in HF are symmetrical.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Assertion A : Dipole-dipole interactions are the only non-covalent interactions, resulting in hydrogen bond formation.
Reason R : Fluorine is the most electronegative element and hydrogen bonds in HF are symmetrical.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Show Hint
- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
- A is true but R is false
- A is false but R is true
- Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Reason R: fluorine is the most electronegative element, which is why H-bonding in HF is the strongest. This part is true, and the statement is treated as true in the key.
Only option (3) has A false, so the answer is (3).
Answer: (3) A is false but R is true

Top JEE Main Questions
- Two masses $m$ and $\frac{m}{2}$ are connected at the two ends of a massless rigid rod of length $l$. The rod is suspended by a thin wire of torsional constant $k$ at the centre of mass of the rod-mass system(see figure). Because of torsional constant $k$, the restoring torque is $\tau =k\theta$ for angular displacement $\theta$. If the rod is rota ted by $\theta_0$ and released, the tension in it when it passes through its mean position will be:
