Question

Assertion: Charcoal adsorb SO₂ gas more than CH₄ gas.

Reason: Gas with lower critical temperature will adsorb more by charcoal

(1) Assertion is true, Reason is true and Reason is correct explanation of Assertion

(2) Assertion is true, Reason is true and Reason is not correct explanation of Assertion.

(3) Assertion is true and Reason is false

(4) Assertion is false and Reason is true

Answer 1

Correct option is (3) Assertion is true and Reason is false

Assertion: SO₂ adsorb more by charcoal than CH₄ as SO₂ is polar and CH₄ is non polar

Reason: Gas with higher critical temperature will adsorb more by charcoal
