NEET Chemistry Stability of Complexes Assertion Reason Question
Assertion : K₂[Ni(EDTA)] is more stable than K₃[Al(C₂O₄)₃]. Reason : Ni is a transition element while Al is a non-transition element.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.
