Assertion : Pyrrole is less basic than pyridine. Reason : Lone pair electron of nitrogen in pyrrole participate in conjugation to gain aromatic character.

Options

  1. AIf both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark (1).
  2. BIf both Assertion & Reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark
  3. CIf Assertion is true statement but Reason is false, then mark (3).
  4. DIf both Assertion and Reason are false statements, then mark (4).

Correct answer

A. If both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark (1).

Step-by-step solution

(A ) and (R ) both are correct. In pyrrole , the lone pair is in conjugation with double bond and makes it aromatric. In pyridine , Ione pair is available as the does not undergo in resonance. ( ) Pyridine is stronger base than pyrrole.
