Assertion (A) Finely divided charcoal can act as an adsorbent.
Reason (R) Finely divided material has small surface area.
- A Both \(A\) and \(R\) are correct and \(R\) is the correct explanation of \(A\).
- B Both \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{R}\) are correct and \(\mathrm{R}\) is not the correct explanation of \(\mathrm{A}\).
- C \(A\) is correct but \(R\) is incorrect.
- D \(A\) is incorrect but \(\mathrm{R}\) is correct.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(A\) is correct but \(R\) is incorrect.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Finely divided charcoal has larger surface area and greater adsorption. Hence, it is more effective as an adsorbent. So, Assertion (A) is correct and Reason (R) is incorrect.
