To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that "Current stops flowing when \( E_{\text{cell}} = 0 \)". - In electrochemical cells, current is generated due to the flow of electrons from the anode to the cathode. When the cell potential (\( E_{\text{cell}} \)) becomes zero, it indicates that there is no driving force for the electrons to flow, hence the current stops. ...
