Assertion Standard boiling point of a liquid is slightly higher than the normal boiling point. Reason I bar pressure is slightly less than I atm pressure.
Options
- AAssertion and Reason are correct statements and reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
- BAssertion and Reason are correct statements and Reason is not the explanation for Assertion.
- CAssertion is correct, Reason is incorrect.
- DAssertion is incorrect, Reason is correct.
Correct answer
D. Assertion is incorrect, Reason is correct.
Step-by-step solution
Assertion It is incorrect because standard boiling point (b.p. at 1 bar pressure) of a liquid is slightly lower than the normal boiling point (b.p. at (1 ~atm ) pressure). It is because 1 bar pressure is slightly lower than (1 ~atm ) pressure. Reason It is correct because (1 ~atm =1.01325 ) bar. Since, Assertion is incorrect, Reason is correct.
