Given below are two statement : one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R . Assertion A : SO 2 ( g ) is adsorbed to a large extent than H 2 ( g ) on activated charcoal. Reason R : SO 2 ( g ) has a higher critical temperature than H 2 ( g ) In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Options
- ABoth A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation fo A
- BBoth A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A .
- CA is not correct but R is correct.
- DA is correct but R is not correct.
Correct answer
B. Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A .
Step-by-step solution
Gases having higher critical temperatures have greater extent of intermolecular force of attractions and those gases readily adsorb on the activated charcoal.
