Q46 of 55 Page 61

In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.

Assertion (A): The temperature at which vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure is called boiling temperature.


Reason (R): At high altitude atmospheric pressure is high.


(i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) A is true but R is false.


(iv)A is false but R is true.


(iii)

The Boiling point can be defined as “the temperature at which vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure “.


Hence, assertion is true.


Now, the reason, at high altitude atmospheric pressure is high, is found to be false because the pressure decreases as the altitude increases


Hence, (iii) option is correct.

In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.

Assertion (A): Three states of matter are the result of balance between intermolecular forces and thermal energy of the molecules.


Reason (R): Intermolecular forces tend to keep the molecules together but thermal energy of molecules tends to keep them apart.


(i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) A is true but R is false.


(iv) A is false but R is true.

In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.

Assertion (A): At constant temperature, pVvs V plot for real gases is not a straight line.


Reason (R): At high pressure all gases have Z > 1 but at intermediate pressure most gases have Z < 1.


(i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) A is true but R is false.


(iv) A is false but R is true.

In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.

Assertion (A): Gases do not liquefy above their critical temperature, even on applying high pressure.


Reason (R): Above critical temperature, the molecular speed is high and intermolecular attractions cannot hold the molecules together because they escape because of high speed.


(i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) A is true but R is false.


(iv)A is false but R is true.

Assertion (A): At critical temperature liquid passes into gaseous state imperceptibly and continuously


Reason (R): The density of liquid and gaseous phase is equal to critical temperature.


(i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) A is true but R is false.


(iv) A is false but R is true
