Assertion (A) Redox couple is the combination of oxidised and reduced form of a substance involved in an oxidation or reduction half cell
Reason ( R) In the representation `E_(Fe^(-3+)//Fe^(2+))^(ϴ)` and `E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)^(ϴ), Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+)` and `Cu^(2+)//Cu` are redox couples

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A

C

A is true but R is false

D

Both A and R are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
Both assertion and reason are true reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
Redox couple is the combination of oxidised and reduced form of substance. In the representation `E_(Fe^(-3+)//Fe^(2+))^(ϴ)` and `E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)^(ϴ), Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+)` and `Cu^(2+)//Cu` are redox couples.
