NEET Chemistry (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 11
Assertion (A): The trajectory of electrons cannot be precisely determined. | Reason (R): The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle prevents simultaneous determination of position and velocity.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle implies that we cannot simultaneously know the exact position and velocity of an electron, which makes it impossible to determine its trajectory.
