Assertion : Solution of sodium hydroxide can be stored in a vessel made of `Zn` or `Al`. Reason : Sodium ferrite on treatment with hot water produces sodium hydroxide.A. If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertionC. If assertion is true but reason is false.D. If assertion is false but reason is true.

Answer» Correct Answer - d
Assertion `: 2Al+6NaOH rarr 2 Na_(3)AlO_(3)+3H_(2)`
`Zn+2NaOH rarr Na_(2)ZnO_(2)+H_(2)`
So sodium hydroxide solution cannot be stored.
Reasion `: 2NaFeO_(2)+H_(2)O("Hot") rarr 2NaOH+Fe_(2)O_(3)`
