Assertion (A) : Increasing order of acidity of hydrogen halides is HF lt HCl lt HBr lt HI. Reason (R) : While comparing acids formed by the elements belonging to the same group of periodic table, H-A bond strength is a more important factor in determining acidity of an acid than the polar nature of the bond.
