Assertion (A) The enthalpy of reaction remains constant in the presence of a catalyst.
Reason (R) A catalyst participating in the reaction forms different activated complex and lowers down the activation energy but the difference in enrgy of reactant and product remains the same.
(a) Both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is correct explanation of assertion (b) Both assertion and reason are correct, but reason does not explain assertion. (c) Assertion is correct, but reason is incorrect (d) Both assertion and reason are incorrect (e) Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.
Assertion (A) All collision of reactant molecules lead to product formation.
Reason (R) Only those collisions in which molecules have correct orientation and sufficient kinetic energy lead to compound formation.
