NEET Chemistry Nernst Equation Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The Nernst equation can be used to calculate cell potential for a reaction involving concentration changes over time.
Reason (R): The Nernst equation accounts for the changing concentrations of reactants and products by incorporating the reaction quotient Q.
Both A and R are true, and R explains A.
Both A and R are true, but R does not explain A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The Nernst equation relates cell potential to the concentrations of reactants and products, thus allowing the calculation of cell potential as concentrations change (Chunk 3).
