Assertion:- On the sharp edges of charged conductor air get ionised.
Reason:- Potential is higher at the sharp edges of conductor.


Important Questions on Capacitance
Assertion: Net charge density inside a conductor is zero.
Reason: Equal and opposite charges are present in conductor.

Assertion: Charge given to a conductor appears on its surface.
Reason: When charge appears on surface then potential energy of conductor becomes minimum.
