NEET Chemistry Enthalpy Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 11

Assertion (A): The net enthalpy change of a reaction can be determined using the bond enthalpies of reactants and products. | Reason (R): Bond enthalpy values are exact and provide precise enthalpy changes for all reactions.

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
