4.Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
hard
વિધાન : Ozone is powerful oxidising agent in comparison to $O_2$.
કારણ : Ozone is diamagnetic but $O_2$ is paramagnetic.
A
If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
B
If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
C
If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
D
If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
(AIIMS-2005)
Solution
Ozone is a powerful oxidising agent because it is unstable and breaks into oxygen as it has higher energy content than oxygen.
$O_3 \to O_2 + O$
It is also true that $O_3$ is diamagnetic, while $O_2$ is paramagnetic.
