Statement $I :$ Acid strength increases in the order given as $HF < HCl < HBr < HI$.
Statement $II :$ As the size of the elements $F, Cl, Br, I$ increases down the group,the bond strength of $HF, HCl, HBr$ and $HI$ decreases and so the acid strength increases.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true.
  • B
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false.
