Assertion: Most probable velocity of par...

Assertion: Most probable velocity of particles of gas is the velocity possessed by maximum fraction of particels at the same temperature.
Reason: On collision, more and more molecules acquire higher speed at the same temperature.

A

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

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
On collision, `KE` redistributes, one molecule acquires and other loses the `KE` so, average `KE` remains the same at the same temperature.
