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.

Nitrogen form N2, but phosphorous  form P2, it's at a time convert in P4, reason is:

1. Triple bond present between phosphorous atoms. 
2. pπ-pπ bonding is weak in phosphorous.
3. pπ-pπ bonding is strong in phosphorous.
4. Multiple bonds easily form phosphorous.
