Assertion (A): A fluorescently whitened sample can show a reflectance factor greater than 100 per cent.
Reason (R): The emitted fluorescent light adds to the light reflected at the same wavelength, so the total leaving the sample exceeds that leaving the perfect diffuser.

  • 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

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism, and the effect is confined to the blue region where the whitener emits. Reflectance factor compares the sample against a perfect reflecting diffuser under the same illumination, and fluorescence supplies energy from outside the measured band.
