Statement-1 : Mean free path of molecule...

Statement-1 : Mean free path of molecules of a gas decreases with increases in number density of the molecules.
Statement-2 : More the molecules per unit volume, more are the chances of molecular collision. Therefore, mean free path decreases.

A

Statement-1 is ture, statement-2 is true and statement-2 is correct explanation of statement-1

B

Statement-1 is ture, statement-2 is true but statement-2 is not correct explanation of statement-1

C
