Assertion (A): H₂SO₄ acts as a base in the presence of HClO₄. Reason (R): Perchloric  acid  is  stronger  acid  than H₂SO₄.

A.A✓ Correct
B.B
C.C
D.D
Explanation

If two strong acids are mixed; relatively weaker one will act as base. Thus,  among 2 4 H SO and 4 HClO ; 4 HClO is  stronger than 2 4 H SO . Hence, 2 4 H SO acts as base and 4 HClO as acid.
