| Assertion (A): | Carbon forms two oxides \(CO\) and \(CO_2\) where \(CO\) is neutral whereas \(CO_2\) is acidic. |
| Reason (R): | \(CO_2\) will combine with water to give carbonic acid and \(CO\) is soluble in water. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
