Assertion `(A) :` Galvanized iron does not rust.
Reason `(R): Zn` has a more negative electrode potential than `Fe`.

A

If both assertion and reason are true, and reason is the true explanation of the assertion

B

if both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the true explanation of the 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

R is the correct explanation of A (More negative electrode potential of zinc means higher oxidation potential. Hence, zinc is more easily oxidized than iron).
