Assertion (A) `E_("cell")` should have a positive value for the cell to function,
Reason(R) `E_("cathode")ltE_("anode")`

A

Assertion is false but reason is true

B

Assertion is true but reason is false

C

Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not a true explanation for assertion

D

Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation for assertion

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

For the cell reaction to be feasible `E_("cathode") ` should be positive `Delta _(r) G^(@) = - n F . E_(0)` cell for the value of `E_(0)` cell to be positive ` E_("cathode ") gt E_("anode ")`
