Question

**Assertion (A):** The number of molecules in $16 \text{ g}$ of $O_2$ is the same as in $28 \text{ g}$ of $N_2$. <br>**Reason (R):** $16 \text{ g } O_2$ is $0.5 \text{ mole}$ and $28 \text{ g } N_2$ is $1.0 \text{ mole}$.

Answer: D

💡 Solution & Explanation

$16 \text{ g } O_2 = 0.5 \text{ mol}$; $28 \text{ g } N_2 = 1 \text{ mol}$. Since the mole counts are different, the number of molecules ($n \times N_A$) is different. Assertion is false; Reason is true. [1]
