Assertion: As mole is the basic chemical unit, the concentration of the dissolved solute is usually specified in terms of number of moles of solute.
Reason: The total number of molecules of reactants involved ina balanced chemical equation is known as molecularity of the 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 correct 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

The number of moles of a solute present in 1 litre of solution is known is as molarity (M).
The total no. of molecules of reactants present in a balanced chemical equation is known as molecularity. For example,
`PCl_(5) rarr PCl_(3) + Cl_(2)` (Unimolecular)
`2HCl rarr H_(2)+I_(2)` (Bimolecular)
`:.` Molarity and molecularity are used in different sense.
