Assertion (A): | Cr(VI) in the form of dichromate in an acidic medium is a strong oxidising agent, than MoO3 and WO3. |
Reason (R): | Mo(VI) and W(VI) are found to be more stable than Cr(VI). |

3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion (A): | In transition elements, ions of the same charge in a given series show progressive decrease in radius with increasing atomic number. |
Reason (R): | Transition elements exhibit variable oxidation states. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |

Assertion(A): | Aquated copper (I) cation undergoes disproportionation as: 2Cu+(aq.)→Cu2+(aq.)+Cu |
Reason(R): | Hydration energy of Cu2+ is higher than that of Cu+ which compensates second ionization energy of Cu. |
