Following reaction describes the rusting of iron
`4Fe+3O_(2) rarr 4Fe^(3+)+6O^(2-)`
Which one of the following statements is incorrect?

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.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Fe is oxidised to `Fe^(3+)` and acts as a reducing agent and `O_(2)` is reduced to `O^(2-)`. Thus, it is a redox reaction.
