NEET Chemistry Nernst Equation Assertion Reason Question
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.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(A) is true but (R) is false.
(A) is false.
Correct Answer
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.
