AssertionThe standard reduction potential forAg-e-x2212-x2192-Agis equal to that of2Ag-2e-x2212-x2192-2AgReasonStandard potential is independent of the number of electrons transferred-Hence- both Assertion and Reason are incorrect-

AssertionThe standard reduction potential forAg++e−→Agis equal to that of2Ag++2e−→2AgReasonStandard potential is independent of the number of electrons transferred.Hence, both Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

Assertion
The standard reduction potential for
$A g^{+} + e^{-} \to A g$
is equal to that of
$2 A g^{+} + 2 e^{-} \to 2 A g$
Reason
Standard potential is independent of the number of electrons transferred.
Hence, both Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
