Question

Which of the following is not a characteristic of anode rays?

• A. Anode rays travel in a straight line in the absence of electric and magnetic field
• B. The impact of electric and magnetic fields is opposite to the impact on cathode ray
• C. The properties of anode rays does not depend on the nature of the gas taken in the discharge tube
• D. Anode rays possess a positive charge

Answer 1

The correct option is C The properties of anode rays does not depend on the nature of the gas taken in the discharge tube

As the e/m value of anode rays are different for different gases, the properties of anode rays depends on the nature of the gas taken in the discharge tube.
