JEE Main 2022 (Online) 25th June Evening Shift | Periodic Table & Periodicity Question 101 | Chemistry

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : Metallic character decreases and non-metallic character increases on moving from left to right in a period.

Reason (R) : It is due to increase in ionisation enthalpy and decrease in electron gain enthalpy, when one moves from left to right in a period.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

(A) is false but (R) is true.

(A) is true but (R) is false

Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
