MCQ
For 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 $(A):$ Charge is quantized.
Reason $(R):$ Charge which is less than $I C$ is not possible.
  • 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 $A.$
  • $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false and $R$ is also false.

Answer

Correct option: C.
$A$ is true but $R$ is false.
The charge $q$ on a body is given as $q = ne$ where $n$ is any integer positive or negative.
The charge on the electron is $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C$ which is less than $1C.$
