Q1

Statement-I: Acid strength increases in the order given as \( \mathrm{HF}<\mathrm{HCl}<\mathrm{HBr}<\mathrm{HI} \)

Statement II: As the size of the elements \( \mathrm{F}, \mathrm{Cl}, \mathrm{Br} \), I increases down the group, the bond strength of \( \mathrm{HF}, \mathrm{HCl}, \mathrm{HBr} \) and \( \mathrm{HI} \) decreases and so the acid strength increases.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

[NEET 2021]

a

Both statement I and statement II are false

b

Statement I is correct but statement II is false

c
