Assertion (A): Standard Kubelka Munk theory cannot handle fluorescent colourants.
Reason (R): It describes absorption and scattering but contains no emission term.

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

Answer: D

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. Kubelka Munk accounts for light absorbed and light scattered, and a fluorescent colourant does something neither describes: it absorbs at one wavelength and re-emits at a longer one, so more light can leave at that wavelength than arrived. Handling fluorescence requires a bispectral treatment relating excitation to emission.
