Solution
The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Na2O reacts with water to form a strong base NaOH.
Cl2O7 reacts with water to form strong acid.
Na2O +H2O→2NaOH
Cl2O7+H2O→2HClO4
in aqueous solution, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) dissociates to provide hydroxide ions. In aqueous solution, perchloric acid (HClO4) dissociates to provide hydrogen ions.
