NEET Chemistry Conductance Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12

Assertion (A): The electrical resistance of an object depends on its length and cross-sectional area. | Reason (R): Resistivity is a measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current.

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 A

Detailed Explanation

The assertion and reason are both true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. The resistance is directly proportional to the length and inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area, while resistivity is the material-specific factor influencing resistance.
