Question

Assertion :acids do not show acidic bheaviour in absence of water. Reason:all acids in pure state are covalent compounds which do not contain h+ions​

Answer 1

Answer:

Assertion is correct and reson is the correct explanation of it

Explanation:Acids refers to the producing of h+ions

When it is in the correct suitable medium for producing it then the nature of the acid goes away without the producing of h+ ions

Answer 2

Assertion and reason both are correct and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.-Acids refers to the producing of h+ions

- The acidic behaviour of any acid is due to the presence of hydrogen ions.

- In the absence of water, all acids in pure state are covalent compounds and they do not dissociate to produce H+ ions.

- Hence the acid will not show its acidic behaviour.
