Assertion : 1 Faraday of electricity is passed through acidified $H_{2} O$ , volume of $O_{2}$ liberated at STP will be 5.6 L .

Reason : Equivalent weight of oxygen is 16.

Answer:

Solution:

1 F liberates 8 g of O₂ at STP [Equivalent weight of oxygen = $\frac{16}{2} = 8$ ].

32 g of O₂ = 22.4 L at STP ⇒ 8 g of O₂ = 5.6 L at STP.

Assertion is true, but reason is false.
