The correct Answer is:
To solve the given question, we will analyze the assertion and the reason step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that the radial probability of 1s electrons first increases until it reaches a maximum at 0.53 Å and then decreases to zero. - This is based on the concept of radial probability density, which describes the likelihood of finding an electron at a certain distance from the nucleus. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that Bohr's radius for the first electron shell (1s) is 0.53 Å. - Bohr's model of the atom provides the radius for the electron's orbit in the hydrogen atom, where the first shell corresponds to the 1s orbital. 3. **Graphical Representation**: - To visualize this, we can plot a graph where the x-axis represents the distance from the nucleus (r) and the y-axis represents the radial probability density. - The graph starts at zero, increases to a maximum value at 0.53 Å, and then decreases back to zero. This behavior confirms the assertion. 4. **Evaluating the Statements**: - Both the assertion and the reason are correct: - The assertion accurately describes the behavior of radial probability for 1s electrons. - The reason correctly identifies Bohr's radius for the first electron shell as 0.53 Å. 5. **Determining the Relationship**: - Although both statements are correct, the reason (R) does not provide a direct explanation for the assertion (A). The assertion discusses the behavior of radial probability, while the reason states a fact about Bohr's radius without explaining why the radial probability behaves that way. 6. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct conclusion is that both A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A. ### Final Answer: - The correct option is: Both A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
