1.	Assertion : `0.20 M` solution of `NaCN` is more than basic than `0.20 M` solution of `NaF`. Reason : `K_(a)` of `HCN` is very much less than that of `HF`.A. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.B. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.C. Assertion is true but reason is false.D. Assertion is false but reason is true.
Answer» Correct Answer - A Since `K_(a)` of `HCN` is less than that of `HF`, so `CN_(-)` is stronger base than `F^(-)`.
