$Assertion (A)$: $A$ current of $96.5 \ A$ is passed into aqueous $AgNO_3$ solution for $100 \ s$. The weight of silver deposited is $10.8 \ g$ (At. wt. of $Ag = 108$).
$Reason (R)$: The mass of a substance deposited during the electrolysis of an electrolyte is inversely proportional to the quantity of electricity passing through the electrolyte.
The correct answer is :

  • A
    Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A)$
  • B
    Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of $(A)$
  • C
    $(A)$ is true but $(R)$ is false
  • D
    $(A)$ is false but $(R)$ is true
