Assertion: In vulcanisation of rubber , ...

Assertion`:` In vulcanisation of rubber , sulphur cross links are introduced.
Reason`:` Vulcanisation is a free radical intiated chain reaction.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the corret explanation of the assertion.

C

if assertion is true but reason is false

D

if the assertion and reason both are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Vulcanisation is a process of teating natural rubber with sulphur or some compounds of sulphur under heat so as to modify its properties. This cross-linking give mechanical strength to the rubber.
