The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion and reason question, we will analyze both statements step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states: "The acid rain usually occurs in towns having a large number of industries." - **Analysis**: This statement is true. Acid rain is more likely to occur in areas with high industrial activity because industries emit pollutants such as sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), which contribute to the formation of acid rain. ### Step 2: Understand the Reason The reason states: "Industries released gases cause acid rain to occur." - **Analysis**: This statement is also true. The gases emitted from industries, particularly sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), react with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and nitric acid (HNO3), leading to acid rain. ### Step 3: Determine the Relationship Now, we need to determine if the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. - The assertion explains that acid rain occurs in industrial towns, while the reason explains how industrial emissions lead to acid rain. Therefore, the reason directly supports the assertion. ### Conclusion Both the assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ### Final Answer Both assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ---
