B

If both `(A)` and `(R )` are correct, but `(R )` is not the correct explanation of `(A)`.

C

If `(A)` is correct, but `(R )` is incorrect.

D

If `(A)` is correct, but `(R )` is correct.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion (A) The assertion states that a `0.1 M` solution of glucose has the same increment in freezing point as a `0.1 M` solution of urea. **Explanation**: - The freezing point depression (ΔTf) can be calculated using the formula: \[ \Delta T_f = i \cdot K_f \cdot m \] where: - \(i\) = van 't Hoff factor (which is 1 for both glucose and urea since they do not dissociate in solution), - \(K_f\) = freezing point depression constant of the solvent (water in this case), - \(m\) = molality of the solution. For both glucose and urea: - \(i = 1\) - The molarity (M) is given as `0.1 M`, which can be approximated to molality (m) for dilute solutions. ### Step 2: Calculate ΔTf for Both Solutions For glucose: \[ \Delta T_f (\text{glucose}) = 1 \cdot K_f \cdot 0.1 \] For urea: \[ \Delta T_f (\text{urea}) = 1 \cdot K_f \cdot 0.1 \] Since both calculations yield the same result, we conclude: \[ \Delta T_f (\text{glucose}) = \Delta T_f (\text{urea}) \] Thus, the assertion (A) is **true**. ### Step 3: Understand the Reason (R) The reason states that \(K_f\) for both solutions has different values. **Explanation**: - The freezing point depression constant \(K_f\) depends on the solvent, not the solute. Since both solutions are in the same solvent (water), \(K_f\) will be the same for both solutions. ### Step 4: Conclusion on Reason (R) Since the reason (R) claims that \(K_f\) values are different for glucose and urea, which is incorrect because they are both in the same solvent (water), we conclude that the reason (R) is **false**. ### Final Answer - Assertion (A) is **true**. - Reason (R) is **false**. Thus, the correct option is **C**: Assertion A is correct, but Reason R is incorrect. ---
