Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12
Assertion (A): The Nernst equation provides a relationship between the equilibrium constant of a reaction and the standard potential of the cell. | Reason (R): The Nernst equation includes the term 2.303RT/nF which is derived from the ideal gas law.
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 B
Detailed Explanation
The Nernst equation relates the equilibrium constant and standard potential, but the term 2.303RT/nF is not derived from the ideal gas law.
