Q1:

Assertion (A): Rochelle salt and Barium titanate are both ferroelectric. Reason (R): Ferroelectric materials exhibit hysteresis effect.

A Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A

B Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A

C A is true but R is false

D A is false but R is true

ANS:B - Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A

Both the materials exhibit ferroelectric properties. Hysteresis effect is one of the features of ferroelectric materials.
