MCQ
For question two statements are given $-$ one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R)$. Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $(a), (b), (c)$ and $(d)$ as given below.
Assertion $(A)$ : Between any two given energy levels, the number of absorption transitions is always less than the number of emission transitions.
Reason $(R)$ : Absorption transitions start from the lowest energy level only and may end at any higher energy level. But emission transitions may start from any higher energy level and end at any energy level below it.
Assertion $(A)$ : Between any two given energy levels, the number of absorption transitions is always less than the number of emission transitions.
Reason $(R)$ : Absorption transitions start from the lowest energy level only and may end at any higher energy level. But emission transitions may start from any higher energy level and end at any energy level below it.
- ✓Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
- BBoth $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is $\text{NOT}$ the correct explanation of $A$.
- C$A$ is true, but $R$ is false.
- D$A$ is false and $R$ is also false.
