Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R: Assertion A : In equation $\mathrm{\Delta_rG=-nFE_{cell}}$, value of $\mathrm{\Delta_rG}$ depends on n. Reason R : $\mathrm{E_{cell}}$ is an intensive property and $\mathrm{\Delta_rG}$ is an extensive property. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Question

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R:

Assertion A : In equation $\mathrm{\Delta_rG=-nFE_{cell}}$, value of $\mathrm{\Delta_rG}$ depends on n.

Reason R : $\mathrm{E_{cell}}$ is an intensive property and $\mathrm{\Delta_rG}$ is an extensive property.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.

A is true but R is false.

A is false but R is true.
