12th Class Physics Atomic Physics Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Atoms

  • question_answer
    Assertion (A): In the a-particle scattering experiment, most of the a-particles pass undeviated.
    Reason (R): Most of the space in the atom is empty.

    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 and R is true

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Option (A) is correct. Explanation: Most of the a-particles pass roughly in a straight line (within \[{{1}^{0}}\]) without deviation. This shows that no force is acting on them. So assertion is true. Most of the space in the atom is empty. Only 0.14% of a-particles are scattered more than \[{{1}^{\operatorname{o}}}\].
