Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R. Assertion A : In equation value of depends on n. Reasons R : is an intensive property and is an extensive property. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
Both A and R are true and R is NOT the correct explanation of A
A is true but R is false
A is false but R is true
Assertion A is true because depends on the number of moles of electrons transferred (). Reason R is also true because is an intensive property (independent of amount) and is an extensive property (depends on amount). However, R is not the direct explanation for why depends on in the equation, as the dependence on is a mathematical consequence of the definition of Gibbs free energy as an extensive property.
