The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that "Photoelectric effect can take place only with an electron bound in the atom." - The photoelectric effect refers to the phenomenon where electrons are emitted from a material (usually a metal) when it is exposed to light (photons) of sufficient energy. - However, it is important to note that the photoelectric effect primarily involves the emission of free electrons from the surface of a metal, rather than electrons that are bound within an atom. - Therefore, the assertion is **false** because the photoelectric effect can occur with free electrons, not just those bound in atoms. ### Step 2: Understand the Reason The reason states that "Electron is a fermion whereas proton is a boson." - In particle physics, fermions are particles that follow the Pauli exclusion principle and have half-integer spin (e.g., electrons, protons, and neutrons). - Bosons, on the other hand, are particles that have integer spin and can occupy the same quantum state (e.g., photons, W and Z bosons). - Protons are made up of three quarks and are classified as fermions, not bosons. Thus, the statement that "proton is a boson" is incorrect. ### Step 3: Conclusion Based on the analysis: - The assertion is **false**. - The reason is also **false**. Thus, the correct answer is that both the assertion and the reason are false. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are false. ---
