Assertion : In change of state from solid to liquid the temperature decreases untill the entire amount of the solid subtance melts.
Reason : The phenomenon of refreezing is called melting

A

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

B

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

C

If the assertion is true but the reason is false

D

If the both the assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Both the solid and liquid states of the substances coexist in thermal equilbruim during the change of state from solid to liquid. The phenomenon of refreezing is called regelation.
