NEET Chemistry (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 11
Assertion (A): The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency. | Reason (R): The kinetic energy of ejected electrons in the photoelectric effect increases with the increase of frequency of the light used.
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 but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
While both statements are true, the reason given is not directly explaining the assertion, as the assertion is about the energy of individual photons, whereas the reason addresses the behavior of electrons in the photoelectric effect.
