Question

Assertion (A): Oxidation occurs at the anode.

Reason (R): Electrons are gained at the anode.

विकल्प

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

• Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

• A is true but R is false.

• A is false but R is true.

Answer 1

A is true but R is false.

Explanation:

Assertion A is true because oxidation involves loss of electrons and occurs at the anode. Reason R is false because electrons are lost, not gained, at the anode; electron gain and reduction occur at the cathode. Thus, only A is true.
