Assertion : The melting point of ice decreases with increase of pressure. Reason : Ice contracts on melting.Assertion : The melting point of ice decreases with increase of pressure. Reason : Ice contracts on melting.

Options

  1. AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
  2. BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
  3. CIf assertion is true but reason is false
  4. DIf both assertion and reason are false.

Correct answer

B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

Step-by-step solution

Assertion : The melting point of ice decreases with increase of pressure. Reason : Ice contracts on melting.
It can be easily seen from the graph that as pressure increases the melting point of ice decreases.
