ASSERTION-REASON TYPE
Directions: These questions consist of two statements, each printed as
Assertion and Reason. While answering these questions, you are
required to choose any one of the following four responses.
(a) If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct
explanation of the Assertion.

(d) If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
Q14 Assertion:- Equal moles of different substances contain same no. of particles.
Reason:- Equal weight of different substances contain same no. of particles.
Q15 Assertion:- All isotopes of a given element show the same type of chemical
behaviour.
Reason:- The chemical properties of an atom are controlled by the no. of electrons
in the atom.
Q16 Assertion:- Smaller the size of an atom, greater is the electronegativity.
Reason:- Electronegativity refers to the ability of an isolated gaseous atom to
attract electron itself.
Q17 Assertion:- Though the central atom of Both NH3 and H2O molecules are sp3
hybridised, yet the H-N-H bond angle is greater than that of H-O-H.

lone pairs in their respective compounds.
Q18 Assertion:- The specific heat of a gas in an isothermal process is infinite and in a
adiabatic process is Zero.
Reason:- Specific heat of a gas is directly proportional to change of heat in system
and inversely proportional to change in temperature.

CASE BASED QUESTIONS
Read the following passage and answer the following questions
Q31. Periodic properties show a regular gradation on moving from left to right in a period 4*1=4
or from top to bottom in a group. Down a group, the atomic/ionic radii, metallic

show any regular trend.
