Assertion: The whole charge of a conductor cannot be transferred to another isolated conductor. Reason: The total transfer of charge from one to another is not possible.

Options

A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
D. If both assertion and reason are false.

Explanation

To solve the given assertion and reason question, we need to analyze both statements carefully.

### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion
The assertion states: "The whole charge of a conductor cannot be transferred to another isolated conductor."

- A conductor can hold charge, and when connected to another conductor, charge can flow between them until they reach the same potential. However, if the second conductor is isolated (not connected to anything else), it cannot receive the entire charge from the first conductor.

### Step 2: Understanding the Reason
The reason states: "The total transfer of charge from one to another is not possible."

- This statement is somewhat misleading. While it is true that the total transfer of charge cannot happen if the second conductor is isolated, it is possible to transfer charge if the conductors are connected. Therefore, the reason does not accurately support the assertion.

### Step 3: Conclusion
Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect in the context provided. The assertion incorrectly states that the whole charge cannot be transferred when, in fact, it can be transferred if the conductors are connected. The reason is also misleading as it implies a general impossibility of charge transfer, which is not true when conductors are connected.

### Final Answer
Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect.
