Question

Given below are two statements labeled Assertion A and the labeled as Reason R :
Assertion A : In the equation $\Delta_rG=-nFE_{cell}$ value of $\Delta_rG$ depends on n.
Reasons R : $E_{cell}$ is an intensive property and $\Delta_rG$ is an extensive property.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options below :

• A. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
• B. A is true but R is false.
• C. A is false but R is true.
• D. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

Answer 2

The correct option is (D): Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
$\Delta_rG=-nFE_{cell}$
$E_{cell}$ is an intensive property and $\Delta_rG$ is an extensive property as it depends on the number of $e^{\theta}$ transferred in cell reaction.
