29.

Assertion (A): A decrease in temperature increases the reverse saturation current in a p-n diode.

Reason (R): When a diode is reverse biased surface leakage current flows.

Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A
Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A
A is true but R is false
A is false but R is true
Answer: Option
Explanation:

A is wrong because decrease in junction temperature decreases reverse saturation current.
