NEET Physics Davisson-Germer Experiment Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12

Assertion (A): The Davisson-Germer experiment demonstrated that electrons exhibit wave-like behavior. | Reason (R): The de Broglie wavelength of electrons was confirmed by observing an interference pattern in the Davisson-Germer experiment.

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 A

Detailed Explanation

The Davisson-Germer experiment provided experimental evidence for the wave nature of electrons by observing an interference pattern, confirming the de Broglie wavelength.
