Q9 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2007 · Chemistry
Assertion (A) : Equal moles of different substances contain same number of constituent particles.
Reason (R) : Equal weights of different substances contain the same number of constituent particles.
The correct answer is
- ABoth $(\mathrm{A})$ and $(\mathrm{R})$ are true and $(\mathrm{R})$ is the correct explanation of (A)
- BBoth $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of (A)
- Correct answerC(A) is true, but (R) is false
- D(A) is false but (R) is true
Solution
Equal moles of different substances contain same number of constituent particles but equal weights of different substances do not contain the same number of constituent particles.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
