In the light of the below statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Statement I: Acid strength increases in the order given as HF < HCl < HBr < HI.
Statement II: As the size of the elements F, Cl, Br, I increases down the group, the bond strength of HF, HCI, HBr, and HI decreases and so the acid strength increases.
 
1. Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect
2. Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
4. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.

Oxygen forms hydrogen bonds while chlorine does not, because :

1. Chlorine has a bigger size and as a result, a higher electron density per unit volume.
2. Oxygen has a smaller size and as a result, a lower electron density per unit volume.
3. Oxygen has a smaller size and as a result, a higher electron density per unit volume.
4. Oxygen has a bigger size and as a result, a higher electron density per unit volume.
