Question

Assertion :Nitrogen doesn't form compound of the type N+2[PtF6] (Ionisation potential of N2 is 1403kJmol1) Reason: Oxygen and xenon which have ionisation energies, 1180kJmol1 and 1170kJmol1, respectively, can be oxidised by PtF6 while nitrogen having comparatively much higher ionisation energy, 1403kJmol1 cannot be oxidised, so a compound of the type [N2]+[PtF6] cannot be formed.

A
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion

Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion as oxygen and xenon which have ionisation energies, 1180kJmol1 and 1170kJmol1, respectively, can be oxidised by PtF6 while nitrogen having comparatively much higher ionisation energy, 1403kJmol1 cannot be oxidised. So, a compound of the type [N2]+[PtF6] cannot be formed.
