Assertion : Physical absorption of molecules takes place on surface only. Reason : In this process, the bonds of the absorbed molecules are broken.

Options

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

Correct answer

C. If the assertion is true but the reason is false.
