Assertion : Compressibility factor (Z) i...

Assertion : Compressibility factor (Z) is the ratio of actual molar volume of a gas to the molar volume of it , if it were an ideal gas at that temperature and pressure .
Reason : At high pressure all the gases have Z lt 1 and can be easily compressed .

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion .

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false .
