MCQ
Given below are two statements: one is labeled as Assertion (A) and the other is labeled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Metallic character decreases and non-metallic character increases on moving from left to right in a period.
Reason (R) : It is due to increase in ionization enthalpy and decrease in electron gain enthalpy, when one moves from left to right in a period.
In the light of the above statements,
choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
(a) Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(d) Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

Arrange the bonds in order of increasing ionic character in the molecules. LiF, $K_{2}O$ , $N_{2}$ , $SO_{2}$ and $ClF_{3}$ [a) $ClF_{3} < N_{2} < SO_{2} < K_{2}O < LiF$ (b) $LiF < K_{2}O < ClF_{3} < SO_{2} < N_{2}$ (c) $N_{2} < SO_{2} < ClF_{3} < K_{2}O < LiF$ (d) $N_{2} < ClF_{3} < SO_{2} < K_{2}O < LiF$
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Increasing order of ionic character $N_{2} < SO_{2} < ClF_{3} < K_{2}O < LiF$ Ionic character depends upon difference of electronegativity (bond polarity).
