NEET Chemistry Mole Concept Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): In a balanced chemical equation, the stoichiometric coefficients represent the number of moles of reactants and products. | Reason (R): Stoichiometric coefficients are dependent on the physical state of substances involved in the chemical reaction.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The stoichiometric coefficients indeed represent the number of moles of reactants and products, but they are not dependent on the physical state of substances. The coefficients are related purely to the quantities of substances involved in a given reaction.
