Assertion Electromotive force is a force which help the electrons to flow and produce current. Reason Electromotive force is independent of the voltage across the cell

1. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
2. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
3. Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
4. Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect

Correct answer: Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect

Solution

The assertion is correct because electromotive force is the cause that drives electrons through a circuit and produces current. The reason is incorrect because the emf of a cell is not independent of the voltage across its terminals; terminal voltage can differ from emf due to internal resistance.
