Given below are two statements: 

Assertion (A): Fluorine exhibits only –1 oxidation state whereas other halogens exhibit + 1, + 3, + 5 and + 7 oxidation states.
Reason (R): Other halogens have d orbitals and therefore, can expand their octets and show +1, +3, +5 and +7 oxidation states also.


 

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.

In the light of the below statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
I: Acid strength increases in the order given as HF < HCl < HBr < HI.
II: As the size of the elements F, Cl, Br, I increases down the group, the bond strength of HF, HCI, HBr, and HI decreases and so the acid strength increases.
 
1. I is correct but II is False.
2. I is incorrect but II is True.
3. Both I and II are True.
4. Both I and II are False.
