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).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.

Graphite is a soft solid lubricant extremely difficult to melt. The reason for this anomalous behavior is that graphite : 

1. is a non-crystalline substance. 
2. is an allotropic form of diamond. 
3. has molecules of variable molecular masses like polymers. 
4. has carbon atoms arranged in large plates of rings of strongly bound carbon atoms with weak interplate bonds.
