Question

Make the correct choice as :
(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
(C) If Assertion is true but Reason is false. (d) If Assertion is false but Reason is true.
(e) If both Assertion and Reason are false.

Assertion : When an acid reacts with a metal carbonate, it gives the corresponding salt,
carbon dioxide and water.

Reason: Acidic and basic solutions in water conduct electricity because they produce
hydrogen and hydroxide ion respectively .
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

answer is (B) because you can take the example of CuCO3 react with H2SO4 it gives CuSO4+H2O+CO2

and the second one is true but not correct reason.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option b) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

Explanation:

• Acids and bases only display conducting properties when in an aqueous solution in which they can totally ionize in water.
• As per Arrhenius' concept, acids are those that produce hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.
• Bases produce the hydroxide ion(-OH) when dissolved in water.
• These ions, when in water, act as charge carriers and can hence conduct electricity.
• Metal carbonates and metal hydrogen carbonates are basic in nature, hence they neutralize acid and form corresponding salt, carbon dioxide, and water.
