Assertion (A): The chromaticity of an additive mixture lies on a straight line between its components.
Reason (R): Additive mixing is linear in the tristimulus values.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism. The tristimulus values of the mixture are the sums of the components’, and chromaticity coordinates are those values normalised - so the mixture is a convex combination of the two points and must lie between them. Linearity is exactly what makes the path straight.
