Assertion: The melting point of solid (e...

Assertion: The melting point of solid (except ice) increases with increase in pressure.
Reason: An increasion in pressure favours the change where volume decreases.

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:
A
Solide `hArr` Liquid `V_(L) gt V_(S)` , increase in pressure leads to melting of ice as it favours the change showing decrease in volume.
