Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
Statement I: Voltaic cells harness the energy of redox reactions.
The chemical energy is converted into electrical energy.
Statement II: In a voltaic cell, ion flow occurs through the salt bridge.
This helps in maintaining electrical neutrality.
Hence, statement I is true and statement II is false.
