Given below are two statements : one is labelled as
Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Haloalkanes react with KCN to form alkyl
cyanides as a main product while with AgCN form isocyanide
as the main product.
Reason (R) : KCN and AgCN both are highly ionic compounds.

appropriate answer from the options given below :
B Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct
explanation of (A)
C (A) is not correct but (R) is correct

A. The stability of the hydrides decreases in the order NH3 > PH3 > AsH3 > SbH3 > BiH3
B. The reducing ability of the hydrides increases in the order NH3 < PH3 < AsH3 < SbH3 < BiH3
C. Among the hydrides, NH3 is strong reducing agent while BiH3 is mild reducing agent.
D. The basicity of the hydrides increases in the order NH3 < PH3 < AsH3 < SbH3 < BiH3
