A. General relativity explains Mercury's anomalous perihelion advance and the bending of light by treating gravity as electromagnetic using electromagnetic formulas and the assumption of the speed of light for the speed of gravity.
B. The unified field theory failed to unify electromagnetism and gravity. ["Then, in the early part of the 20th century, Albert Einstein developed general relativity, a field theory of gravitation. Later, Einstein and others attempted to construct a unified field theory in which electromagnetism and gravity would emerge as different aspects of a single fundamental field. They failed, and to this day gravity remains beyond attempts at a unified field theory."- Britannica]
C. Therefore, general relativity fails to explain Mercury's perihelion advance and the bending of light.
