AIIMS 2001 Chemistry Dissociation Constant Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Assertion (A) : Relative strength of acids can be known by knowing the value of dissociation constant.
Reason (R) : It gives the value of H⁺ dissolved in solution.
A
If both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
If both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
If A is true but R is false.
D
